Question:
If a traveler arrives in Makkah during Ramadan while fasting, should he break his fast to strengthen himself for performing 'Umrah?
Answer:
He is a traveler as long as he is outside his hometown and has not returned to it; he is a traveler in Makkah or anywhere else, unless he intends to stay for more than four days, in which case he is a resident. However, if he intends a brief stay sufficient to perform 'Umrah, he is a traveler and may break his fast.
