The ruling on going out for hunting in Ramadan and breaking the fast

Question:
The questioner says: In these days, there are people who go out for hunting and break their fast. What is your guidance?

Answer:
Going out. If his intention is to break the fast, it is not permissible. Whoever travels in order to shorten the prayer and in order to break his fast in Ramadan, this is forbidden and not permissible. As for the one who travels for a permissible need, the one who travels for a permissible need in Ramadan, he may break his fast, and hunting is a permissible need. So if he travels for a leisure trip or travels to hunt, and his intention is not to get rid of fasting, there is no harm in breaking his fast; because he falls under the general meaning of the saying of Allah the Exalted: He is a traveler. This is from the aspect of permissibility; it is permissible. But it is better that he not travel for the sake of hunting; this is what is better and more excellent, and that he remain in the town and fast with the Muslims. Yes.
