Is the criterion the disappearance of the sun's disk?

The questioner : Our Shaykh, is the criterion the disappearance of the sun's disk or ... from the direction of the east?

The Shaykh : There are three conditions in the hadith, but this is generally the case if a person is not in a valley. Generally, the three signs mentioned in the hadith occur together, namely his saying (peace be upon him): .
The student : Shall I add to you ...?

The Shaykh : May Allah reward you with good. No.
The student : We rely on Allah and we pray.

The Shaykh : Come, in the name of Allah, how are you?

The questioner: Peace be upon you.

The Shaykh : Welcome, and peace be upon you to the group, come.
The student : Wait for me until I finish ...
Another student : It is long ...

The Shaykh : and we will explain this matter so that the brothers hear it, if you see fit.

The questioner : But briefly.

The Shaykh : Briefly.

The questioner : May Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh: All right.

The questioner : May Allah bless you.

The Shaykh : So let us return. What remains after we mentioned his saying (peace be upon him): and we mentioned earlier, as an explanation of the indication of this authentic hadith, that generally when the sun sets, the setting of the sun precedes the approach of the night and the departure of the day? We mentioned all of this. What do you think remains?

The questioner : O Shaykh, I said there is a completion to the question, I said, if Allah wills, after the prayer.

The Shaykh : I said yes, I mean, if you notice that the answer was not completed.

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : With our narration of the hadith first.

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : And our explanation of its indication second.

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : I said, if in your opinion, after the end of the speech, then I will hear it from you and answer you.

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : But in my opinion, the matter is finished. What is your opinion?

The questioner : I say, O Shaykh, sometimes the sun is positioned such that the sun's disk disappears, but a ray remains in the direction of the west.

The Shaykh : The ray in the direction of the west does not matter. This ray, have you seen it mentioned in the hadith? The answer will be no.

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : But what did you see in the hadith? You saw three things: pointing to the direction of the east, meaning the light of the day, , so the fasting person has broken his fast. What do we have to do with the rays of the sun? This reminds me of a story where we were also invited to a place and this topic was raised, and one of the attendees mentioned this doubt. I said, suppose a plane passed over our heads now and we saw the sun striking this plane, are we responsible for that? No. So we are obligated wherever we are on this earth. If these three descriptions are present: the approach of the night from the east, the departure of the day from the west, and the setting of the sun behind the horizon, whether it is a mountain, a plateau, a sea, a plain, or something similar, then the fasting person has broken his fast. So the ray of the sun does not harm us. We may see the sun striking and shining on a plane as it flies high in the sky or low; this does not matter to us. And with this, we finish answering this question. And now, where is our brother?
