Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: Is it permissible to make the intention in the middle of the act or at the end, rather than at the beginning?
Answer:
No, it must be from the beginning. The act is one; it must be for the obligatory fast. It must be before the dawn breaks, or when the dawn breaks. As for the voluntary fast, if he has not eaten or drunk and he intends to fast during the day, there is no harm; it is permissible. Yes.
