This questioner says: Regarding the blessed month of Ramadan, may Allah grant us and you the blessing of reaching this noble month. He asks: We are studying abroad, and we do not know about the arrival of the blessed month of Ramadan except, meaning, about a day later. Whom do we follow in fasting? Do we fast according to our home country, or according to the country where we reside or study?

Fast with the Muslims in the country where you are. Fast when the Muslims fast. Consult the Muslim communities, consult the Islamic center, and fast with the Muslims among you. Yes.
