The ruling on fasting an obligatory fast with the intention made after the dawn has appeared
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
I found that the Shaykh prevents people from making the intention for fasting the voluntary fast, and at night I recite this intention, then in the prayer after dawn the people of the voluntary fast fasted. Is this fasting valid?
The Shaykh:
This fasting is not valid. The obligatory fast, whether for performing it in its time or making it up, every obligatory fast, whether for performing it, making it up, a vow, or an expiation, it is obligatory to make the intention before the dawn appears. This is based on the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)Sunan an-Nasa'i 2336Sahih (Darussalam) the intention is from the night. And because if he delays the intention until after the dawn, a time passes while he has not intended to fast, and a time of the day passes in which he did not intend to fast. And the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) says Sahih al-Bukhari 1 unlike the voluntary fast. For the voluntary fast, it is permissible for a person to intend to fast during the day, on the condition that he has not eaten or drunk anything after the dawn appeared. If he reached the morning and did not eat or drink anything after the dawn appeared, then he decided to continue the fast, it is permissible for him to do so. This is in the specific case of the voluntary fast. As for the obligatory fast, it is necessary that he intends it before the dawn appears, such that no time passes after the dawn without the intention. Yes.
Another questioner:
Glory be to Allah. And if it happened to the self. In the middle of the day, it was mentioned about
The Shaykh:
There is no harm. It is the original state of fasting. In the obligatory fast, it is a condition in the obligatory fast. As for the voluntary fast, it is not broken except by eating or drinking intentionally. So if we started that he would break the fast in the voluntary fast, then he renounced breaking the fast and said, "I will continue," it is permissible to make the intention initially and it is permissible to make it for continuation. The voluntary is broader than the obligatory. The voluntary in acts of worship is broader than the obligatory. What is permissible in the voluntary is not permissible in the obligatory. Yes.

There is no fast for the one who does not intend
لا صيام لمن لم يجمعThe reward of deeds depends upon the intentions and every person will get the reward according to what he has intended.
