The Shaykh al-Islam’s statement on the one who broke his fast at the beginning of the day because he did not know the month had begun

Question:
I say, Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is your view on what the Shaykh al-Islam mentioned regarding the one who broke his fast at the beginning of the day because he did not know the month had begun, that he should abstain from food and drink and owes no making up of the fast, based on the hadith of Asma (may Allah be pleased with her)?

Answer:
No, this is not a position to be acted upon, even if the Shaykh chose it and stated that the legislations are not binding except after knowledge. The majority hold the opposite of his position, because a time of the day has passed in which he did not intend to fast; he only intended it during the day. How can it be said that he fasted that day when he did not intend it at its beginning?
