Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We say: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If a person intends to fast on Monday on the day of Saturday, then forgets and eats after the dawn of Monday, and then remembers that the day is Monday, does this prior intention suffice?
Answer:
No. Even if he intended before the dawn and ate after the dawn, his fast is not valid. The fast is only valid with an intention made during the day, provided he did not eat after the dawn, in which case the voluntary fast is valid. Yes.
