Question: What is the ruling on one who eats or drinks during the day in Ramadan while forgetting?
Answer: There is no harm on him, and his fast is valid; for Allah the Exalted said at the end of Surat al-Baqarah: [al-Baqarah:286] And it is authentic from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) that Allah the Exalted said: And it is established from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said: Sahih Muslim 1155 It is agreed upon that it is authentic.
Answer: There is no harm on him, and his fast is valid; for Allah the Exalted said at the end of Surat al-Baqarah:
Our Lord, do not impose blame upon us if we have forgotten or erred.
رَبَّنَا لاَ تُؤَاخِذْنَا إِن نَّسِينَا أَوْ أَخْطَأْنَاHe has done so
قد فعلتIf anyone forgets that he is fasting and eats or drinks he should complete his fast, for it is only Allah Who has fed him and given him drink.
من نسي وهو صائم فأكل أو شرب فليتم صومه، فإنما أطعمه الله وسقاه
