Fasting for the driver of a large vehicle who travels frequently
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I am the driver of a large vehicle, but I am unable to fast due to my frequent travel between Riyadh and the other regions of the Kingdom. What is required of you?
Answer:
You are required to break your fast while traveling. You must make up the missed days on other days. Allah has permitted the traveler to break his fast,[Al-Baqarah 2:185], so you break your fast because of the travel and make up what you owe on the days of rest, the days on which you rest. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,

You are required to break your fast while traveling. You must make up the missed days on other days. Allah has permitted the traveler to break his fast,
and whoever is ill or on a journey - then an equal number of other days
