The place of breaking the fast for one who has left the houses of the town and the trace of its people
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh:
Aminah al-Ajam.
The questioner:
May Allah reward you, O Shaykh. Does this mean, for example, after one leaves the town by a certain number of kilometers, or simply after one leaves?
The Shaykh:
If he has left the houses, he has left the water, even if he is in the vicinity of Sara. For example, the airport in Madinah, the airport in Riyadh, the airport in Jeddah. If he has left the houses, he has traveled, yes. Now, may Allah reward you. For example, if he is in the same airport terminal, he breaks his fast. As long as he is outside the town, yes. He breaks his fast. And that is the intention. No one should object to him. Yes, yes, as long as he has left the town, that is sufficient. May Allah increase your knowledge. I know that Anas is weak in the narration of Abdullah ibn Ja'far al-Madani, the son of Ali, and he is weak. As for the hadith of Abu Bakr, it is good, but he may have ridden and traveled, and he only sees the other villages, which does not harm. In a previous reading for you, you said it was good, and you said its chain is good. Yes. The time of Fajr. It requires consideration. I think it is another route, but the footnote now is on the chain of Abdullah ibn Ja'far, the son of Ali al-Madani, and it is known that he is weak. But if a sound chain is found for it, then this statement is strengthened. However, all the authentic hadiths indicate that his breaking the fast and shortening the prayer, peace and blessings be upon him, are all after the journey.
