Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A woman vowed to fast a month on non-consecutive days, and she said, "I am tired of fasting." Is she permitted to break her fast and offer a sacrifice, or is she required to fast?
Answer:
She is required to fast. If she vowed to fast on non-consecutive days, she must fast until she completes the month, even if the days are not consecutive. She is required to fast, for whoever vows to obey Allah, let him obey Him. And Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and his Companions.
