Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner asks: What is the ruling on one who breaks his fast when the mu'adhdhin of the neighborhood mosque calls the adhan according to the time of al-Madinah al-Munawwarah, while I am in Makkah al-Mukarramah? Please inform us. May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
The one who broke his fast based on the adhan of al-Madinah while he is in Makkah: there is a difference in timing between the two countries. He is required to make up this day. If the sunset in al-Madinah is later than in Makkah, he must make it up. If it is the opposite, if the sunset in al-Madinah is earlier than in Makkah, he is required to make it up. However, if the sunset in al-Madinah is later than in Makkah, he owes nothing. Yes, this depends on the calendar; it depends on the calendar. He should look at the difference between al-Madinah and Makkah.
