The Ruling on Continuous Fasting (Wusul)

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is continuous fasting (wasal) in Ramadan until the 'Isha' prayer permissible or recommended?

Answer:
Continuous fasting is prohibited. It means not breaking the fast at sunset, fasting for two or three days without breaking the fast. This is permissible, but it is prohibited. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited continuous fasting. He said:
Whoever is doing continuous fasting, let him continue until the pre-dawn meal,من كان مواصلا فليواصل إلى السحر،
At the very least, one should have the pre-dawn meal every night, and breaking the fast at sunset is better than continuous fasting. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
