Fasting or Breaking the Fast While Traveling in Ramadan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If the travel does not involve hardship, is it better to fast or break the fast regarding Ramadan?

Answer:
It is better to break the fast by taking the dispensation. According to the people of the Zahiriyah, it is obligatory for him to break the fast while traveling; if he fasts, it does not suffice for him according to the Zahiriyah. However, the majority say that it is better for him to break the fast, and if he fasts, that suffices for him. Yes.
