The ruling on one who drinks after the Fajr adhan, relying on the report of a child
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: I drank water ten minutes after the Fajr adhan, because I took my young son’s word that the adhan had not been called and that he had not heard it. I did not know the time of the adhan, so I drank water. Is there a requirement to make up the fast?
Answer:
Yes, my brother, you must make it up, because you delayed ten minutes, meaning you drank during the day. You must make up this day. It is not permissible for you to rely on the report of a child. You have a clock, my brother. You have a clock. Look at the clock, look at the time. It is not hidden. So you were negligent in this, and you must make up this day. May Allah forgive us and you. Yes.
