Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: As for the traveler who fasts voluntary fasts while traveling, is it better for him to complete his fast or to break it by taking the dispensation?
Answer:
He may fast, and he may break his fast. He may fast and continue in his fasting. When a person begins fasting in his home town and then travels, the scholars differed on whether he should break his fast during the day or complete the day. There are two opinions. The stronger opinion is that he may break his fast. However, if he did not intend to travel until during the day, it is better for him to complete that day. Yes.
