Is a man’s heavy work a valid legal excuse that permits him to break his fast in Ramadan? And does he owe an expiation?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : What is the ruling in Islam regarding a man who works in construction doing difficult tasks, and he asks if he has an excuse to break his fast in Ramadan with a ransom payment or an expiation, even though he spends on his parents, and it is only twenty days, of course, in the month his work is full, meaning his salary, my professor, in the full month is not enough for twenty days of expenses.

The Shaykh : It is not permissible for him to break his fast for the sake of work.
Abu Layla : Yes, may Allah reward you with good, and peace be upon you.

The Shaykh : May Allah preserve you

The questioner: Peace be upon you.

The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.
