Breaking the voluntary fast through intercourse
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is it permissible for a person who is fasting a voluntary fast to have intercourse with his wife and break his voluntary fast?
Answer:
In essence, if he holds back until night, that is better for him. If he breaks it, there is no harm; he is not required to complete it. It is not obligatory to complete a voluntary fast; he is permitted to break it.
