Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: If a person fasting for an obligatory fast forgets to make the intention during the night because of sleep or forgetfulness, is his fast invalid?
Answer:
If he intended to fast and sleep overtook him so that he did not get up for the pre-dawn meal, then his fast is valid because he is excused and he intended it from the night, so his fast is valid.
