Question ID 3920 Wednesday 21st of June 2017

Question:

salaam alaikum I was listening to a speaker on you-tube and he was saying that there are some marajas who have given a fatwa that if the fasts are so long as they are nowadays we can calculate up to 15 or 16 hours from our dawn and than we can break our fast. And similarly we should keep that many hours of fast even if Ramadhan falls in winter. Can we believe this? Thank you

Answer:

This Claim is wrong because it goes against Quran in which the time of
start of fasting is mentioned as Far and end of fasting is start of night.

Question ID 3912 Saturday 17th of June 2017

Question:

Salaamu alaikum, I live in a Western European Northern country where I have only 4,5 hours to eat, as iftar starts at 22:07 and imsaak starts at 02:45. I find it hard to put in words how lonely and difficult the experience of Summer Ramadan has been for me in the last few years. Yesterday I took a pre-iftar nap, overslept through my many alarms (I live alone and have no one to wake me up), and missed out on both iftar and sohoor. I woke up extremely thirsty, disappointed, and with a stomach ache that almost made me nauseous. I still planned on fasting, but later in the morning felt light-headed and weak. I knew that if I continued to fast, my next iftar will be after a total of 42 hours of no drinking/eating, so I broke my fast, reluctantly and with a great deal of guilt. I don’t have a job where I can just stay away or take a day off without consequences, and unambitious Muslims have advised to go for a job that’s less demanding and lower on the social ladder, but that’s not an option I want to live with. Did I do right by this? What would be the right thing to do for the next time this happens? I understand I have to pay Kaffara and perform Qadha.

Answer:

Breaking the fast for just hunger or thirst or tiredness is not allowed and you need to seek forgiveness, pay kaffara of feeding sixty poor believers and keep Qadha of that day, but if you broke your fast due to a health issue which prevents you from fasting, then you need to fast for that day later as Qadha.
Fasting is easy for human beings even during the summer, but keep in mind that more suffering brings more reward and Spritual upliftment.

Question:

Is fasting is valid after swollowing a tablet without water for severe migrain headache? Tablet is the only way to stop headache episode along with nause & pain in eyes.

Yes, swallowing a tablet for any reason, invalidates fasting. If it was done because medical urgency, then it is allowed but Qaza fast of that day is obligatory.
