Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : A questioner says, O honorableThe Shaykh : Fasting in this month falls during exam days, and we will be occupied with much of what we used to do previously. So what is your advice for the male and female students?
The Shaykh : As for the female students, I have heard that they have already taken their exams. Yes, I have heard this. As for the male students, you know that a man is stronger than a woman and more capable of enduring hardship. It does not matter to him if he places a measure of barley on one shoulder and a measure of barley on the other; it does not affect him. Yes? Because he is strong. And he will be strong, if Allah wills, in performing the exam. But the point to consider is: if it is his habit, for example, to read five parts of the Qur'an every day, and he is unable to do so during the exam days, we say: Praise be to Allah, the matter is broad, the matter is broad. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:. So as long as you used to read five or ten parts every day in previous Ramadans, and it became difficult for you to do so because of the exams, it is hoped that the reward for what you used to do previously will be written for you, meaning: the reward for the work you used to do previously.
Yes.

Whoever falls ill or travels is written the same reward as what he used to do while healthy and resident.
