The Ruling on Hiding Fasting from People

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a person asks me and says to me, "Are you fasting today?" I say to him, "No," and I am fasting, and my intention is not to fall into showing off in worship. Is that permissible for me?

Answer:
Is that permissible for you? There is nothing preventing it. If you hide your deeds and hide your fasting, there is nothing preventing it.
