| Wa 'alaykum assalaam, When you say you have to break your fast early [i]for some reason[/i], what reason do you mean, if I may ask? It depends on the reason. According to the Quraan/Sunnah, these are the only reasons for not fasting in the first place: When you're ill. [make up later] When you're too old. When you're too young. When you're travelling. [make up later] When you're pregnant. [make up later] Just after you've given birth. [make up later] When a woman is on her menses. [make up later] Hope that helped. |

| [slm] Br. Chris, when I'm fasting if I'm going to be commuting to or from home during Iftar time I carry a few dates and a bottle of water with me, same if I'm in a meeting, you can be quite inconspicuous whilst breaking fast, you don't have to have a full on meal. If at work I usually take lunch at Iftar times, but then they let me do as I please at work.... Wasalaam |
