The Fasting Person Sleeping After the Midday Prayer in the Fasting of the Six Days of Shawwal
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: May Allah protect you, a person intended to fast the six days of Shawwal, and at midday he slept and did not wake up until the next day. Is this day counted for him?
The Shaykh:
As long as he did not sleep the entire day, but only part of the day, his fast is valid. Yes.
The questioner:
He says: May Allah reward you, one who exited his state of ihram before shaving his head without doing so.
The Shaykh:
If he slept before the dawn and did not wake up until the night, that does not mean he fasted, because he did not intend it when the dawn broke. However, as long as he intended it when the dawn broke and fasted, then sleep overcame him and it became heavy for him, his fast is valid, but according to his intention. Yes.
