Explanation of the physical and spiritual factors that invalidate fasting

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Answer:
without his own choice, so this does not affect his fast, even if it is a lot, because it is without his choice. Likewise, among the factors that invalidate the fast are things that come out of the body: menstruation for the woman and post-natal bleeding for the woman. Menstruation and post-natal bleeding invalidate the fast, and fasting is not valid with them. These are physical factors that invalidate the fast. As for the spiritual factors that invalidate the fast, they are all sins.
All sins, whether verbal, such as forbidden speech like cursing, reviling, backbiting, talebearing, false testimony, and so on; or forbidden looking, meaning looking at what Allah has forbidden, such as enticing images and women, and so on; or looking at satellite channels that contain images of women or nudity, or other acts of lewdness. This is also forbidden looking at all times, at all times, and it is more strictly forbidden during fasting.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh Salih ibn Fawzan ibn 'Abd Allah al-Fawzan, you have explained and clarified, and may Allah record that in your good deeds.
