Eating and drinking during the Fajr adhan according to the Umm al-Qura calendar

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: If the mu'adhdhin calls the adhan according to the Umm al-Qura calendar, what is the ruling on one who continues to eat and drink until the mu'adhdhin finishes the adhan?

Answer:
This is negligence. If the mu'adhdhin begins the adhan according to the approved time, the approved time, then it is not permissible to eat or drink. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
so eat and drink (Suhur) till Ibn Um Maktum pronounces the Adhan.كلوا واشربوا حتى يؤذن ابن أم مكتوم
Sahih al-Bukhari 622, 623
, and he used to call the adhan at the appearance of the dawn. The dawn, if you see it yourself, you rely on your own sighting. But if you do not see it, you must rely on the calendar or on the mu'adhdhins, and do not be negligent in your fasting. Yes.
