Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. This questioner says: If a traveler breaks his fast while traveling, is he required to abstain from eating and drinking if he arrives in his city during the day? And what is the evidence for this?
The Shaykh:
Without a doubt, he is required to abstain, because breaking the fast is limited to the state of travel, and the travel has ended. So he fasts the rest of the day and abstains for the rest of the day out of respect for the time, because the travel has ended, and the ruling follows its cause in existence and absence.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh,
The questioner:
This questioner says: What is the best course of action for the believers?
The Shaykh:
He abstains for the rest of the day and makes up the fast, because he did not fast it in its entirety. Yes.
