The ruling on intercourse for a traveler who broke his fast in Ramadan
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, if a traveler breaks his fast in Ramadan and then stays, does he not have to abstain until the opposite? If the answer is yes, then what about one who has intercourse during this stay, while he was in the state of travel, but he stayed? Does he have to make up the fast?
Answer:
The traveler who is permitted to shorten the prayer is permitted to break his fast. If he fasts and then has intercourse, he owes nothing. It is permissible for him to break his fast through intercourse, or by eating, or by drinking; he owes nothing, because Allah permitted him to break his fast and did not restrict him to anything, so he may break his fast through intercourse, or by eating, or by drinking. Yes.
