Breaking fast thinking that she is menstruating


466

Q 1: My menstrual period always comes every thirty-two days. On 15th of last Sha`ban, I got my period and I was supposed to get the following period on 17th Ramadan. However, on that particular day (Part No. 9; Page No. 53) after `Asr (Afternoon) Prayer I noticed traces of blood, and therefore, I ate an olive. Thereafter, I did not have any blood, and thus, I fasted and Prayed until the 29th night of Ramadan.


A: You should make up for the day you broke your Sawm (Fast) in Ramadan by mistake, because that was not an excuse for breaking your Sawm or abandoning Salah (Prayer).May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
