Breaking the fast in Ramadan for a person who is 15 years old
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The first question of Fatwa No. ( 6355 )
Q1: What is the ruling on breaking the fast in Ramadan for a person who is 15 years old, on the grounds of extreme fatigue and inability to complete his fast on that day, and if he makes it up, is it permissible for him to make it up after the month has passed?
of Ramadan following that month?
A1: It is forbidden to break the fast during the day in Ramadan for a mukallaf, who is a Muslim, sane, adult, and resident who is in good health. If fasting becomes difficult for him and he is compelled to break it, just as a person is compelled to eat carrion, it is permissible for him to eat only the amount that removes the hardship from him, then he must abstain for the rest of the day and make up that day after Ramadan. If he delays it until the next Ramadan without an excuse, he must make it up and feed one poor person for every day. One who is fifteen years old in full is an adult, and likewise one who discharges semen due to desire in a wet dream or otherwise, or who grows coarse hair around his private parts. A woman reaches adulthood by a fourth sign, which is menstruation. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
