Breaking the fast of voluntary fasting after intending it from the night
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, the questioner says: If the fast is voluntary and I intend it from the night, but I say that if something happens that leads to breaking the fast, such as fatigue or a feast, I will break it, and my intention is to fast, what is the ruling?
Answer:
The voluntary fast is more lenient than the obligatory one, so it is valid to fast the voluntary fast with this intention. It is also valid if you reach the morning without having intended it, and then you intend it during the day; the fast is valid. Intending the fast during the day is valid for the voluntary fast. The voluntary fast is more lenient than the obligatory one. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
