Fasting

My wife is 1.5 months pregnant and our muslim gynecologist told us not to hold fast (saum). What to do? Do I need to told my wife to keep fast or not.

This is up to your wife. If she fears for her safety or the safety of the fetus, she must not fast and she may make up for these days when she is well again.

am I allowed to fast every Monday and Thursday for the rest of Sha’baan? I started on the 12th which was a Thursday then also fasted Friday, Saturday and Sunday as they were the 3 white days. I made an intention to continue fasting every Monday/Thursday and every white day for as long as possible Insha’Allah, so would be allowed to carry on or not?

The statement is wrong. This is a major sin.

Last year we followed a prayer calendar and fasted accordingto it. For some reason we then followed another calendar where suhoor was later because we were not sure if fajr was in correct time. Then we again returned to the old calendar cause it was safer. Do we have to make up those fasted days because we ate suhoor later and maybe fajr had already began?

If you were not sure, your fasting was valid.

Please could you advise regarding the times we have for fasting in the UK. Most masajid I believe will do end of suhur at around 3am but there are few masajid who will use 1am. I have read this is due to the 15 and 18 degree rulings but I don’t understand them. Please can you advise what we should do as this creates differences within families etc. Jazak Allah khair Wasalaam

Wa alaikum salam, Follow Umm Al Qura timings and calculations.

Last Ramadan I visited ENT doctor while fasting (I had a sinus) he inserted a tampon soaked with small amount of medicine into my nostril. Do I have to make up for that day? I might felt the taste of medicine in my throat after some time but I spitted out in order to clean my throat.

If nothing went into,your stomach, the fasting is valid.

I have a question regarding to the days that I didn’t fast during Ramadan. I made up for 7 days but I’m not sure if it should be 8. So my question is, do I have to fast another day or is this wrong as it’s bidaa?

Yes, you may fast to be on the safe side.

please advise me on this; I broke my nawaafil fast by taking medicine and food after it was past mid day, when I started feeling restless and experiencing the signs and symptoms of malaria.

This is a valid reason. No need to make up nawafil fast. Moreover, Nawafil are not obligatory fasts and one can break them without making them up again.

The question is regarding fasting in Ramadan, I have severe acid reflux after eating, the food always refluxes, In this case, If I fast before offering fajr prayer, It may disturb my concentration in prayer, only for this condition, Can I fast as soon as completing fajr prayer?

Fasting, Prayer

Your question is not clear! Once the dawn breaks, the adhan is called. Once it is called, you must not drink or eat and must fast whether you had prayed fajr or not.

Can i undergo hijama in the month of ramadaan while im fasting or will it break my fast?
