Making up the fast of one who intentionally broke it during the day of Ramadan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a person intentionally breaks his fast during the day of Ramadan, does he have to make it up?

The Shaykh:
One who fabricates.

The questioner:
Intentionally during the day of Ramadan.

The Shaykh:
Yes, he has to make it up, because he is a Muslim; he must repent, and he must make up the fast. Yes.

The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.

The Shaykh:
It is twisted, so its meaning becomes that he is a disbeliever. Someone said that the one who eats in Ramadan intentionally becomes a disbeliever. He is a Muslim, but a sinner; he must repent, and he must make up the fast, and abstain from food and drink for the rest of the day.
