Question:
The questioner says: Since the vacation this year falls mostly during the month of Ramadan, what is the ruling on traveling for tourism in this month while maintaining the obligatory prayers and the tarawih prayers?
Answer:
Traveling for tourism, if it is to the lands of the disbelievers, tourism in the lands of the disbelievers, this is not permissible, neither in Ramadan nor in any other time. It is forbidden to travel to the lands of disbelief except for a dire necessity that cannot be avoided. As for tourism, tourism is not a dire necessity and it is not a pressing need. But if the tourism is within the lands of the Muslims, then it is permissible to travel for it, even in Ramadan, and one may break his fast. However, it is better to stay in Ramadan, fast, pray with the Muslims, preserve the times of prayer, and postpone the travel to after Ramadan. Yes.
