If a person breaks an oath, then he must either feed 10 people, or clothe 10 people or free a slave and if he cannot do any of these then he must fast for 3 days. If a person breaks 10 oaths, then he must feed 100 people. My question is, can he feed them all at once, with the intention of Kaffarah for 10 oaths, or must he feed 10 separately each time?

If the 10 oaths were over the same thing, there is only one Kaffarah. But if they are 10 different things, there should be 10 different kaffarah. If he can gather 100 poor person and feed them at the same time, this is permissible.

If you are fasting and you become unconscious and someone else makes you drink in order for you to be okay again- is your fast broken even though you were unaware of yourself being fed?

If a woman sees her purity before the break of dawn and intends to fast, her fasting is permissible.

A person couldnt fast last ramadan because of ill health and it would have been difficult for her to fast after ramadan.So her parents gave fidyah to the poor. But this ramadan she is able to fast Alhamduilillah. Should she fast for missing the last ramadan or is the fidyah enough?

Yes, you can.

Al Bukhaari (1919) narrated from ‘Aa’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that Bilaal used to give the adhaan at night. The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said:“Eat and drink until Ibn Umm Maktoom gives the call to prayer because he does not give the call to prayer until dawn breaks.” 144 Narrated Anas: Zaid bin Thabit said, “We took the Suhur with the Prophet . Then he stood for the prayer.” I asked, “What was the interval between the Suhur and the Adhan?” He replied, “The interval was sufficient to recite fifty verses of the Quran.” Please advise regarding the above two hadith – The first one state that we can eat and drink till break of dawn/adhan but the second hadith said that thare is a gap between suhur ending and Adhan (fifty verses -which is 4 to 6 minuted)Should we stop eating around 5 minutes before Adhan?

No you shouldn’t. The hadeeth illustrates how long the suhoor would take and not the interval between “finishing” the suhoor.

I am from The Gambia in the western part of Africa and i was wondering if we can start ramadan on the same day as saudi arabia even without sighting the moon here

This shouldn’t be done. you should fast only after sighting the moon in your country.

Regarding laitul qadr: i read fatawa on islamqa about it being in different times zones, e.g australia being ahead of makkah etc. this i understand because its still the same night just different time zone.however, the below is where i’m confused:regarding those scholars who say month should start and end according to local sighting e.g. that why have india/pakistan doing ramadan and eid 1-2 days after makkah. uk is divided on what opinion to follow.how do those scholars reconcile this with lait ul qadr- since that is one night, so do those people seeking,lailatul qadr according to makkah’s odd night or 10 nights or their own? if the whole world is following same day fasting, the above confusion is not there.so e.g. lets say its night x in makkah which is an odd night (most likely), but then you have (as explained above), countries doing ramadan different days- so then there laitul qadr night would be on an different night i.e. lets say its 27th night in makkah for others its their 26th night as they started ramadan one day later.i have another example: lets say its eid in makkah, but other countries are still on their last night ramadan, now according to makkah lailtul qadr is over…

This is something that we have to believe in it without being able to see it. no one knows when lailatul Qadr is and this is to Allah only.

Dear Shaikh, you rightly said we are told to break our fast when we see the sunset but nowadays in cities with large large buildings it is very difficult to see the sunset? Now in this condition can we follow the Salah timetable by increasing 2-5 minutes as precaution to break our fast?

Fasting

You shouldn’t add these 2-5 minutes. You should break your fast when you believe that the sun has set whether you see it or not. I would break my fast in accordance to the time table.
