Question:
May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good. The questioner asks and says: If a person is fasting and the mu'adhdhin calls to prayer, is it prescribed for him to break his fast at the beginning of the mu'adhdhin's call, or should he wait until the mu'adhdhin finishes and then break his fast?
Answer:
If the mu'adhdhin is calling at the exact time, synchronized with the setting of the sun, then he breaks his fast at the very beginning of the call, because in this case the mu'adhdhin is certain that the sun has set. And when the sun sets, the fasting person breaks his fast; he does not wait until the call is finished.
