Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Finally, he says: Shaykh, as for me, I am a truck driver who travels between Dammam, Jeddah, and Riyadh. Regarding fasting for the entire month, what is the ruling on a driver who travels all month long?
Answer:
He should set aside a time to fast from the recommended practices, and there is no harm in breaking the fast. In fact, if he is traveling, he is more entitled to the dispensation than one who is not traveling. However, if there are only as many days left in Ramadan as the number of days he owes, he must fast them, and the new Ramadan should not begin while he still has fasting days owed from the previous month. Yes.
