Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: What is the stronger position regarding fasting while traveling? Is it better to fast or to break the fast?
Answer:
It is better for the traveler to break his fast; it is better by the dispensation of Allah, Mighty and Majestic, because Allah loves for His dispensations to be taken, just as He dislikes for His sins to be committed. So breaking the fast while traveling is better. And if he fasts, his fast is valid.
