The ruling on the intention to break the fast in obligatory and voluntary fasting
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. He asks about a person who passed the time for breaking the fast, but then he refrained from it and did not break his fast. Does he ask?
Answer:
Yes. If it is an obligatory fast and he intended to break it, his fast is invalid, because the continuity of the intention is a condition. If he breaks it, the obligatory fast is invalid. As for the voluntary fast, there is no harm if he completes his fast, even if he intended to break it, as long as he has not eaten or drunk. He may change his mind about breaking the fast and complete it. This is regarding the voluntary fast.
