Is this man who fasted on the day of the greater festival, while the people stood at 'Arafah on a Sunday, and he fasted on a Monday and the festival was on a Tuesday, on the right path?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : But what I want to ask now, meaning the opinion of the Shaykh and Islam, is whether this man who fasted on the day of the greater festival, and the standing at 'Arafah for him was when the people stood at 'Arafah on a Sunday, and he fasted on a Monday and the festival was on a Tuesday, is this correct and is this on the right path?
The Shaykh : How is it that you did not understand? If you understood me, you would understand that he is not on the right path.
The questioner : This is what I want to say; it is not what we said, but from the speech you offered, it is clear that he is not on the right path.
The Shaykh : It is not permissible for a Muslim to separate himself from the Muslim community in fasting or breaking the fast, because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) used to say:, so this one whom you called Jamal has no knowledge and no spiritual beauty.
The questioner : Yes, may Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh : How is it that you did not understand? If you understood me, you would understand that he is not on the right path.

The Shaykh : It is not permissible for a Muslim to separate himself from the Muslim community in fasting or breaking the fast, because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) used to say:
Your fasting is on the day the people fast, and your breaking of the fast is on the day the people break their fast.
صومكم يوم يصوم الناس ، وفطركم يوم يفطر الناسThe questioner : Yes, may Allah reward you with good.
