Broke your Sawm before its due time

269

The second question of Fatwa no. 4310 If I want to observe Sawm (Fast) but I can wake up only after the second Adhan (call to Prayer) to Fajr (Dawn) Prayer, is it permissible for me to eat after the Adhan, taking into consideration that it is a voluntary Sawm?

A: If the reality is as you mentioned, then do not eat or drink after the second Adhan of Fajr Prayer as long as you want to observe Sawm even if this is a voluntary Sawm. If you eat after this Adhan, your Sawm will be invalid.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
