Question:
He asks: Is the fast of one who intended it at night but fainted before dawn and did not regain consciousness until after the sun had set valid?
Answer:
No. If he fainted for the entire day, he must make up that day, because the intention was lost; the intention was lost. However, if he regained consciousness for part of the day, and he had intended to fast at dawn—he intended to fast at dawn—and then fainted and regained consciousness during part of the day, his fast is valid because the intention was present. Yes.
