Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, if a person is in the desert, how does he break his fast? Does he rely solely on the sunset, or does he exercise caution?
Answer:
The one in the desert sees the sun when it sets and the night approaches from the east, so he breaks his fast. He sees more than others because he is in the desert. So when the sun sets on the horizon and the night approaches from the east, he breaks his fast. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sahih al-Bukhari 1954 Yes.
