Breaking the fast in summer due to intense heat and work fatigue

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible to break the fast on summer days when the heat is intense, especially for the people of the farms who are exhausted on those days?

Answer:
No, it is not permissible to break the fast except for those to whom Allah has granted a dispensation, namely the sick person and the traveler. As for work, it does not permit breaking the fast. Work does not exist except for the healthy person; he should lighten the work or postpone it to the night. Yes.
