The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, is it the consensus of the scholars that the traveler may break his fast?
The Shaykh:
Yes, the scholars have agreed that the traveler may break his fast, and the majority hold that this is a dispensation: if he wishes, he may do so, and that is better; if he wishes, he may fast. The Zahiris held that it is obligatory for him to break his fast. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh:
Fasting does not suffice for him according to the Zahiris.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you and bless you.
