Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: When does a traveler begin to break his fast if he is fasting? Does he break his fast when he intends to travel, or must he leave his town?
Answer:
He does not break his fast until he leaves the built-up area of the town. As long as he is in the town, he fasts. If he intends to fast during the day, he fasts until he leaves and does not break his fast from his house, saying, "I am traveling and I am fasting." This is not permissible; he fasts. Once he leaves, he may break his fast. Yes.
