Does the whispering that afflicts a fasting person during his voluntary fasts, suggesting that he should break his fast and not fast, have any effect on the fast?

Question:
May Allah reward you with good and do you well. Does the whispering that afflicts a fasting person during his voluntary fasts, where he neither breaks his fast nor fasts, have any effect on the fast? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
Such whispers do not harm a person if they occur to him during worship, whether in prayer or fasting; for they are from Shaytan. So the Muslim should reject them, not pay attention to them, and continue with his worship, whether fasting, praying, or otherwise.
