Question ID 3802 - Fasting (Sawm) |
Salaam Alaykum Maulana,
Hope you are well.
I have 2 questions which I wanted to ask you.
The first is about fasting. I will be travelling during mahe ramadhan to Africa and the flight departure will be at 6:25 PM and arrival to my destination will be the next day at 07:30 AM. So can I not fast both days, or is it a must that I should fast one day? I wanted your answer on the ruling please.
The second question which I have is that are we allowed to eat only fish and chips in an english takeaway which also sell non halal food and meat?
I look forward to your response on the above. Thank you very much. May allah reward you inshallah for what you do.
Kind Regards. Abbas |
