Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: A person who is afflicted with diabetes and suffers from severe thirst while fasting, is it permissible for him to break his fast? And is this disease considered one of the illnesses that is not expected to be cured, such that he resorts to feeding the poor?
Answer:
This requires consulting the doctors. If they determine that he cannot bear fasting due to the diabetes, then he breaks his fast. It is necessary to consult the doctors in this matter.
