Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
What is the ruling on fasting the ten days for preachers participating in awareness campaigns?
The Shaykh:
If they are able to do it and strong enough for it, no. All right. Yes.
The questioner:
And it does not affect their performance in their work.
The Shaykh:
If it affects their performance in their work, saying, "I am sleeping, I am fasting," and leaving the work undone, this is not permissible for him.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
