Muslim prayers for wealth. Muslim conspiracies to attract money. During the preparatory period

Mandatory actions Mandatory actions are divided into two categories: internal obligations (rukn) and external obligations (shurut) and the following things can be attributed to them:

The internal obligations of fasting (rukn) are its basis, non-compliance with which leads to breaking the fast: abstinence from food, drink and sexual intercourse from dawn to sunset.

External obligations (shurut) are divided into three types:

  • Conditions of obligation (shurut wujub).
  • Conditions for fulfilling obligations (shurut adai wujub).
  • Conditions for correct execution (shurut sykha).

Conditions of the obligation:

  1. Islam. As is known, fasting is worship for the sake of Allah Almighty, which means that the fasting person is required to be a Muslim and show his submission to Allah and fast for the sake of His face. Fasting is not accepted until a person fasts for the sake of the One Almighty Allah.
  2. Intelligence.
  3. Coming of age. These conditions are also mandatory for fasting. In Islam, a child or a madman is not legally capable, they are not required to comply with the canons of Islam, but it should be noted that if the child fasts, then the reward will be recorded for both the child and the parents. It is advisable to teach children to fast from the age of seven, but they should be forced to fast when they reach ten years of age. The basis is the words of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace: “Teach your children to prayer by the age of seven and beat (force) them when they reach ten years.” Sunun Dar Qutani Making a comparison to prayer, Islamic scholars say that the same situation applies to fasting.
  4. Knowledge of the onset of the month of Ramadan. Ignorance in Islam has significance for the forgiveness of sins and the removal of obligations.

Conditions for fulfilling the obligation:

This point differs from the previous one in that those listed above are not required to observe fasting at all, and these two categories are obliged to observe fasting in principle, but are not obliged in this provision, but have the right to observe fasting.

  1. Be healthy to fast
  2. Not to be on the road (that is, not to be a traveler). These two conditions for allowing breaking the fast are mentioned in the Qur'an in Surah al-Baqarah in verse 184: "And whoever of you is sick or on a journey for the number of other days."

Conditions for correct execution:

Failure to comply with these conditions leads to breaking the fast.

  1. Intention for fasting. As the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Every deed is by intention.” Hadith cited by Al-Bukhari No. 1. It is enough to make an intention to fast in Ramadan at the beginning of the month. Even if one does not intend to do Ramadan, the fast will still be considered as if one were holding Ramadan.
  2. A woman needs to be clean from menstrual and postpartum bleeding. Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her, said: “During menstruation and postpartum bleeding, we left fasting and prayer, and only made up for fasting.” The hadith is reported by Imam Muslim No. 335;
  3. It is necessary to refrain from actions that spoil the fast.

Desirable actions during fasting:

  1. Taking "suhoor" (ed. - breakfast of a fasting person before dawn. As transmitted from the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace: "Eat before dawn, truly in suhoor there is grace (barakat)." The hadith is reported by al-Bukhari;
  2. Do not delay breaking the fast (ed. - iftar). The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: “People will be in good health as long as they rush to break their fast.” Hadith reported by al-Bukhari;
  3. Avoid actions that may later lead to breaking the fast (such as long swims in the pool, bloodletting, tasting food while cooking, gargling;
  4. Feed those who are fasting. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Whoever feeds a fasting person, his reward is similar to the reward of the fasting person whom he fed, and the reward of that fasting person will not be diminished.” This hadith is reported by at-Tirmidhi in the book “Targhib and Tarhib”;
  5. Do not begin fasting in a defiled state. And in case of desecration, it is advisable to bathe before dawn;
  6. Pronunciation of dug when breaking the fast (ed. - iftar): "Allahumma lakya sumtu wa ala rizkykya aftartu wa alaika tawakkaltu wa bikya amyantu fagfirli ma kaddamtu wa ma akhhartu";
  7. Restrain the tongue from unnecessary words and parts of the body from unnecessary actions (such as idle talk, watching TV). Here we are talking about empty deeds; as for prohibited deeds, leaving them is obligatory, such as, for example, spreading slander, lying;
  8. Do more good deeds. The reward for good deeds during the month of Ramadan increases up to 70 times;
  9. Constant reading of the Quran and remembrance of Allah;
  10. Observance of “Igtikaf” (ed. - being in the mosque), especially in the last ten days. Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her, said that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, in the last 10 days worshiped in a way that he never worshiped in ordinary times." The hadith is given in the Collection of Muslim No. 1175;
  11. Frequent pronunciation of the word “Allahumma innakya afuwwun tuhibbul afwa fagfu anni”, which means, “O Allah, verily you are Forgiving and you love to forgive, so forgive me!”
  12. Waiting for the night of Predestination.

Secondary actions, in the observance of which there is neither sin nor reward:

  1. Kisses if the person controls himself. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) kissed his wife while fasting. The hadith is cited by al-Bukhari and Muslim;
  2. Application of antimony and incense;
  3. Brushing teeth, using miswak. “As reported from the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, he constantly used miswak during fasting.” This hadith is reported by at-Tirmidhi;
  4. Rinse mouth and nose;
  5. A short swim. "The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) bathed from defilement while fasting." This hadith is reported by al-Bukhari, Muslim;
  6. Involuntary entry of snow or dust into the mouth;
  7. Unintentional vomiting;
  8. Smell the smells.

Provisions that are reasons for allowing a person to break his fast:

  1. Disease. If fasting is the reason for stopping treatment or intensifying the disease;
  2. A path whose distance is more than 89 kilometers. A person becomes a traveler from the moment he leaves the locality in which he lived. If a person began to fast and if he had to go on a journey during the day, then he is strictly forbidden to break the fast on that day. A traveler is allowed to fast during the journey if he is confident in himself and it does not cause him any inconvenience. This is indicated by the verse of the Koran: “And whoever of you is sick or is on a journey for that number of other days.” Surah al-Baqarah 184 verses;
  3. Pregnancy and breastfeeding if there is a threat to the baby's health. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Truly, Allah Almighty has removed the obligation of fasting for the traveler and shortened the prayer, and He has also removed the obligation of fasting from pregnant and lactating women.” Narrated by Imam Ahmad, "Ashab Sunnan" book Nailul-Avtar;
  4. Frailty due to old age, incurable disease, disability. All scientists are unanimous in this law. Ibn Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him, said regarding the words of Allah, “And for those who are able to do this, there is a ransom of feeding the poor.” Surah al-Baqarah 184 verse: “These verses concern old infirm people who cannot fast. for breaking the fast, they must feed one poor person for each missed day." This hadith is reported by al-Bukhari;
  5. Coercion that does not depend on the person himself.

Undesirable actions during fasting:

  1. Taste food;
  2. Chewing something;
  3. Kisses if a person cannot control himself;
  4. Performing actions that lead to weakness of the body and can cause a violation of fasting, such as donating blood during fasting;
  5. “United fast” is fasting for two days or more consecutively without breaking the fast in between. Messenger. Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, fasted for several days in a row and did not break his fast. His companions also fasted and the messenger. Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, forbade them. Then the messenger. Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: “I am not like you, truly Allah feeds me and gives me water.” Hadith cited by Bukhari and Muslim Nailul Avtar;
  6. Gargling;
  7. Wasting time on empty talk.

Prohibited actions are actions that violate fasting; they are divided into two types:

Actions that violate fasting and require replenishment and compensation (60 days of continuous fasting for one broken day in the month of Ramadan).

There are two such violations:

  • Intentional eating during fasting. If a fasting person takes food out of forgetfulness, then his fast is not broken. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Whoever eats or drinks during fasting out of forgetfulness, then let him not break his fast - truly Allah has fed and given him something to drink.” The hadith is reported by al-Bukhari No. 1831 and Muslim No. 1155;
  • Intentional sexual intercourse during fasting. When one Bedouin had sexual intercourse with his wife, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) ordered him to free the slave, and if not, then fast for 60 days continuously, and if he cannot, then feed 60 poor people. Hadith reported by Al Jamaga, Nailul Avtar

Actions that violate fasting and require only replenishment (1 day of fasting for 1 broken day in the month of Ramadan). There are more than 75 (seventy-five) such violations, but they can be arranged in three rules:

  • Swallowing something that is not food or medicine, such as a button;
  • Taking food or medicine according to the above provisions, allowing breaking the fast, for example, in case of illness. Mistakenly swallowing water during ablution, making a mistake in breaking the fast (eating food, thinking that the sun has set, but it has not), deliberate vomiting;
  • Incomplete sexual intercourse (when two genital organs do not touch each other), such as the release of sperm when touching the wife.

Ramadan: What is possible and what is not? Rules, conditions, prohibitions

18:00 25.06.2014

To observe fasting there are only two instructions and three necessary conditions, but there are many interpretations of them, and it is often not easy for the fasting person to understand. “Russia for Everyone” has collected all the rules and prohibitions in order to figure out which circumstances can break the fast and which cannot.

To observe fasting in the month of Ramadan, there are only two instructions and three necessary conditions, but there are many interpretations of them, and it is often not easy for the fasting person to understand them. The Internet portal “Russia for Everyone” has collected all the rules, prohibitions and conditions in one material in order to understand what is possible and what is not, and what circumstances can break the fast and what cannot.

There are two requirements for fasting:

  1. Intention (Niyat).
  2. The fasting person must have a sincere intention in his heart to fast for the sake of Allah. It can be expressed in words like this:
    Navyaytu an asuuma sawma shahri Ramadan min al-fajri ilal-maghribi haalisan lillayahi ta'aala, which translated means: “I intend to fast the month of Ramadan from dawn to sunset sincerely for the sake of Allah Almighty.”

  3. Abstaining from eating and other things. During fasting (from the beginning of the time of morning prayer (dawn) until sunset), it is necessary to completely abstain from eating, drinking, inhaling tobacco smoke, and sexual intercourse during the daytime.

In addition, there are three conditions under which a Muslim can fast. If at least one of them does not correspond, he is prohibited from fasting:

  1. the person must be an adult (according to Sharia);
  2. the person must be of sound mind, that is, not mentally ill;
  3. the person must be able to fast and not be sick.

“Fast and you will be healthy”

Who is exempt from fasting?

  1. Travelers on a long journey. A traveler can be considered one who is far from his place of residence at a distance of 90 km or more and is in his place of stay for less than 15 days. If this person does not find it difficult to fast, then he can fast if he wishes. There are no regulations in Islam that travelers must not fast.
  2. Sick. Fasting during illness can harm the health of the fasting person and contribute to the deterioration of his condition, which is prohibited in Islam.
  3. Women during menstruation and postpartum cleansing.
  4. Pregnant and breastfeeding women who fear for the health of their child or themselves.
  5. Elderly people who are unable to fast or are terminally ill. This category of believers must make a donation for each missed day of fasting in the amount of fidiyah sadaqa. However, if in the future a person has the strength and opportunity to fast, then the missed days should be made up, in which case these donations will be considered voluntary (nafil) sadaka. Fidiyah sadaqa is a donation, the amount of which is considered sufficient to feed one poor person twice a day.

“O you who believe, fasting is prescribed for you, as it was prescribed for those before you. Perhaps you will fear God."

What breaks the fast?

Circumstances that break the fast and require atonement (kaffara):

  1. Intentional smoking, ingestion of food, liquids, medicines and anything that is suitable for consumption.
  2. Intentional marital intimacy.

Circumstances that break the fast and require compensation:

  1. Penetration of drugs into the body through the nose and ears;
  2. Using an enema;
  3. Intentionally inducing vomiting;
  4. Beginning of menstruation or postpartum period;
  5. Water entering the nasopharynx during ablution (taharat, ghusl).

“Fasting is Mine, and I reward it”

What does not break the fast?

  1. I ate or drank, forgetting about fasting.
  2. If a person, having forgotten about fasting, ate or drank something, but, remembering, stopped eating and continued fasting. The hadith says: “Whoever, out of forgetfulness, begins to drink or eat, completes (continues) fasting (on this day). Verily, it was the Almighty who fed and watered him” (al-Bukhari, Muslim, at-Tirmidhi, Abu Dawood).
  3. Taking a shower.
  4. Performing a full ablution or taking a shower, as well as a short stay in the bathhouse, does not in any way break the fast.
  5. Food tasting.
  6. Tasting food, provided that the fasting person does not swallow it, also does not break the fast.
  7. Rinsing the mouth and rinsing the nose.
  8. Rinsing the mouth and rinsing the nose, as well as absorbing (swallowed?) the remaining moisture with saliva after rinsing the mouth do not break the fast.
  9. Dropping medicine into the eyes, tinting the eyes with antimony.
  10. Swallowing food residue left between the teeth if its size is less than a pea.
  11. Cleaning teeth with miswak and brush.
  12. Blood donation, bloodletting.
  13. Inhaling incense.
  14. Involuntary release of sperm.
  15. Small amount of vomiting.
  16. We are talking about involuntary vomiting, spontaneous return of part of the vomit back to the stomach, or deliberate induction of vomiting without filling the cavity with it.

During the month of Ramadan, fasting people eat only twice: in the morning (“Suhoor”) and in the evening (“Iftar”).

Suhur

Suhur is the time before dawn, intended for eating before the time of fasting.

Eating must be completed before the first signs of dawn approaching. As with any meal, it is not recommended to overeat during Suhoor, but you should eat enough to gain strength for the whole day of fasting.

“Eat before dawn! Truly, in Suhoor there is grace!”

(al-Bukhari, Muslim, an-Nasai, at-Tirmidhi)

Iftar

Iftar (breaking the fast) is an evening meal at the end of the day's fast (at sunset). Believers, fasting throughout the day, thank the Almighty for the opportunity to benefit from His bounties during the month of Ramadan and turn to Him with a prayer for Him to accept their fast and forgive the mistakes they have made through knowledge and ignorance:

Allahumma lakya sumtu wa bikya aamantu wa ‘alaikya tavyakkyaltu wa ‘alaya rizkykya aftartu fagfirliyi yaya gaffaaru maa kaddamtu wa maa akhhartu, which translated means: “O Allah, for Your sake I fasted, in You I believed, in You I relied. Make breaking the fast what You have given me. Forgive me, O Forgiver, those sins that were previously and future ones.”

It is not advisable to delay eating until later.

What is Tarawih?

Tarawih prayer is an obligatory (muakkyada) sunnah (meaning that abstaining from it is very undesirable for a Muslim).

« Whoever stands up for prayer in the month of Ramadan with faith [in its significance] and expectation of reward [for it only from the Lord], his previous sins will be forgiven."

The time for performing the Tarawih prayer begins after the night prayer (Isha) and lasts until dawn. This prayer is performed every day throughout the month of Ramadan (the month of obligatory fasting). The Witr prayer (performed after the night prayer) these days is performed after the Tarawih prayer.

It is highly advisable to perform this prayer together with other believers (jama'at) in the mosque, although it is also permissible to perform it individually. If a person was unable to perform the Tarawih prayer before its expiration, then there is no need to make up for it.

Fasting according to Mecca time

In the summer, in some countries, the time between dawn and sunset can be up to 19 hours or more, which, especially in hot weather, makes it somewhat difficult to avoid food and, above all, water. However, there is one relaxation in this regard, since “Muslim canonical injunctions do not aim to subject the believer to torment, to bring him difficulties, to oppress,” say theologians. After all, life and health are of paramount importance in Islam.

In this regard, those who find it difficult to fast due to too long daylight hours in the place where a person is located can fast according to the time of Mecca, the Umma website Shamil Alyautdinov writes about this and quotes the words of the famous Egyptian scientist Ali Juma, who was asked a similar question

“Taking into account the fact that in some states the days are long, far beyond the average length of the day (12 hours), for example reaching 19 hours, which leads to a serious burden on Muslims in the matter of fasting (creating unbearable difficulties for them), we believe , that local communities (imams, muftis of these regions) should determine for themselves the average length of the day, using the fasting schedule of the nearest areas where the day length is moderate, or being guided by the Meccan or Medina schedule, that is, by the time of those areas where Muslim legislation was formed ", answered the theologian.

Therefore, if a person feels physical difficulties, which, as the resource cites, becomes obvious on the third day of Ramadan, then he can have his morning meal according to, for example, Moscow time, and break his fast according to Meccan time.

Questions about Ramadan. "Hot Ten" - 1

1. When does Ramadan start?

This year, the Holy month of Ramadan in Russia begins with the onset of evening prayer (Maghrib) on August 20. You should fast from August 21st. The fast ends with evening prayer on September 20.

2. How to fast correctly?

In order for the fast to be accepted by the Almighty, it is necessary to have the intention and refrain from actions that interrupt the fast. It is also necessary that there are no circumstances under which fasting is not allowed (special conditions for women). This means that a woman should not fast on her menstrual days and on the days of postpartum cleansing.

It is important to note here that the lack of ritual purity that occurs after marital intimacy and under other circumstances is not an obstacle to the validity of fasting.

As for intention, it is enough if a person intends to fast mentally, without saying the intention out loud. When the sun sets, you should have the intention in your heart to fast the next day. The time for setting intention ends with the morning dawn. However, for the day of fasting in the month of Ramadan, it is permissible to make the intention after sunrise.

A separate intention is required for each individual day of the month of fasting. The best time to set intentions regarding fasting is before dawn.

3. What breaks the fast?

Fasting is broken by eating, drinking and intimacy during daylight hours. You can read below about how to determine when this time begins and ends.

Along with eating and drinking, smoking and ingesting medications are also prohibited. Also, along with intimate intimacy, other actions of a sexual nature that satisfy sexual passion are prohibited.

It is important to note here that failure to perform ablution does not break the fast. You can fast without being in a state of ritual purity.

You can read more about which actions violate and which do not violate fasting here.

Read below about what to do if the fast was broken due to negligence, forgetfulness or other accidental circumstances.

4. When is the time to fast and when does it end?

Muslims fast during daylight hours. Even before dawn, it is necessary to take the last meal, usually no later than 2 hours before sunrise, which is called suhoor. This is the sunnah. Thus, fasting should begin at dawn. In the schedules of prayer times, it is indicated first.

The fast ends at sunset. This means that when the time for evening prayer comes, the time for breaking the fast also comes. This breaking of the fast is called iftar.

You can view the schedule of prayer times in your city for the coming month here. Print it out so you always have it on hand. Give it to friends who need it. Explain to them what time the fast begins and when it ends.

5. For whom is fasting obligatory?

Fasting during the month of Ramadan is the obligation of every mentally healthy Muslim who has reached puberty. However, if fasting for a Muslim involves serious difficulties (for example, traveling) or danger to health, then it is permissible to postpone it for a more opportune moment.

6. How should a sick person, a pregnant woman, or a nursing mother fast?

If a person is sick and fasting may harm his condition, then it is permissible to postpone fasting. This means that during an illness you don’t have to fast, but after recovery you need to make up for the missed days. If a person is terminally ill, or due to senile weakness is not able to fast, then he must feed the poor (based on his daily diet) for each day of fasting. If this is not possible, then the obligation of fasting is not assigned to such a Muslim.

As for pregnant and lactating women, if they fear for the health of the baby or their own health, fasting can be postponed until a more appropriate moment.

7. How to make up for missed days of fasting?

First you need to figure out why the post was missed. Be completely honest with yourself. And remember that you are not obligated to tell other people why or when you missed a day of fasting. Promise yourself that you will try never to miss a fast without a reason that is considered sufficiently compelling according to Shariah. And of course, make up the missed day in accordance with the rules.

Reasons why a post might have been missed fall into two categories. The first of them - due to illness, out of necessity, out of ignorance, out of weakness of faith - requires that in order to make up for the missed day of fasting, you fast on another day. To do this, you need to fast exactly as many days as you missed. At the same time, you must make the intention that you want to make up for the missed day of fasting.

The second reason is the deliberate interruption of a fast that has already begun. This circumstance is considered a gross violation of fasting and requires not only repentance, but also to commit kaffarat. This means that a Muslim must fast continuously for two months that does not fall on Ramadan or major holidays, and if health does not allow this, then feed sixty poor people.

8. Is it possible to have sex during Ramadan?

As mentioned above, intimate relationships between spouses are prohibited during daylight hours. However, when the time comes when fasting ends, intimate relationships become permissible.

It should be remembered that such relationships are allowed only to spouses, and adultery (extramarital and premarital relations) is prohibited, regardless of the month and time of day. In addition, in intimate relationships there are certain rules that Muslims must adhere to.

In addition to the five obligatory prayers that a Muslim is obliged to perform in any other months, it is highly desirable to perform the Tarawih prayer for a minimum of 8 - a maximum of 20 rakats. This action is sunnah. You can read about the rules for reading this prayer here.

It would be unwise to neglect other additional prayers during the month of Ramadan, since worship at this time is especially valuable. Don’t forget about du’a (appeals to the Almighty), because the requests of those who are fasting are accepted, many hadiths talk about this.

Remember that Ramadan is the best time for night prayers, reading the Koran, staying in Igtikaf, and gaining knowledge about Islam.

10. What should I do if I accidentally took food or water while fasting?

It also happens that, due to forgetfulness, a Muslim drank water or ate food during fasting, but then remembered that he was fasting. How should he deal with this situation? Having remembered his fast, a person should immediately abandon an action that could violate it. In this case, the fast remains in force and the Muslim should continue to fast.

If a person ate food by mistake (for example, he decided that it was time for Iftar), he must continue his fast, but then, at the end of Ramadan, restore one day as a debt.

During the month of Ramadan, during fasting hours (from dawn to sunset), it is strictly forbidden to have direct sexual intimacy with your wife. From the moment the sun sets until the time the morning prayer begins, spouses can have intimate relations without any restrictions. If sexual intercourse took place during fasting hours, then the fast will be broken. A person who violates it in this way is obliged to atone for his sin by two months /1/ of continuous fasting /2/. If, due to physical weakness, he is not able to fast for two months in a row, then he must feed sixty poor people /3/, allocating for each the amount that on average he (the one who broke the fast) spends on the daily food of an adult member of his family /4/. As for the question of who is entrusted with this form of atonement for sin - the husband or the wife, all theologians speak about the husband and many about the wife /5/. But Shafi'i theologians, for example, are more inclined to believe that this form of atonement does not concern the wife. She will need to restore only one day of broken fast /6/.

In the case where the spouses committed this out of forgetfulness or ignorance, atonement for the sin is not provided.

If such (deliberate) violation of fasting has occurred multiple times, then the violated sanctity of each of the days of obligatory fasting must be made up by the spouses with two months of continuous fasting /7/.

1. Does ejaculation (ejaculation) break the fast? 2. If, without having had sexual relations with your spouse, you still ejaculate, does this break the fast? Timur.

1. If this is a wet dream, then the fast is not broken /8/, but if it is sexual intercourse with a spouse, then there is a problem. In atonement, you will have to fast for two months in a row.
2. See the previous answer or subsequent ones.

Is it possible for spouses to have intimate relations during the daytime during Ramadan if they do not fast for some days for a good reason? Rustam.

If they do not fast, for example when they are travelers, then everything that is permitted becomes permitted in the usual manner.

Is the fast considered broken if there was oral sex with the husband during the day during the fast? D.

The fast has not been broken. It is violated only by direct sexual intercourse.

During Ramadan last year, I kissed and hugged my wife during daylight hours. There was no sexual intercourse, but I ejaculated. It turns out that my fast that day was broken? After the month of Ramadan ended, I made up for this day. Was it enough to make up for the broken day or should I fast for two months in a row to atone? A.

Most likely, no, it was not violated, since there was no sexual intercourse (only kisses and hugs), and therefore more like a wet dream, which does not break the fast. There is no direct argument regarding the case you described in the Sunnah. At the same time, there is a theological opinion that such ejaculation breaks fasting /9/. Just in case, you fasted for one day. This is definitely enough /10/.

I am looking for an answer to one question about marital intimacy during Lent. I read in the material “ Marital intimacy during fasting"that oral sex does not break the fast. I would like to clarify whether this also includes oral sex by the wife of her husband’s genital organ, if subsequent ejaculation occurs? This question worries me very much. Rasim.

Since as a result of the process you described (not just kisses and hugs, but something much more) ejaculation occurred, your fast was broken /11/. Replenish it one to one after completing the month of Ramadan. This will be enough /12/.

Does strong excitement spoil the fast? My wife and I got very carried away during the day, but did not get to the point of sexual intercourse. I would like to know whether the fast was broken or not?

The fast is not broken if there was no direct sexual intercourse.

Two years ago, during Lent, I had intimate sex with my girlfriend. What does this entail? Ruslan.

This does not break the fast.

If she was not your wife, then such a relationship is a sin, a serious sin, regardless of which month of the year it happened.

Is the fast broken if you kiss your wife on the lips during the daytime?

Please tell me, is it possible to hug and kiss your wife during the day, during fasting?

Is it possible to kiss during the month of Ramadan? After all, saliva is transmitted during a kiss .

While fasting, you can kiss your wife. The Prophet Muhammad himself (may the Almighty bless him and greet him) kissed his wife ‘Aisha in Ramadan during the daytime, which is reported from her words in several reliable hadiths /13/.

Let me remind you that fasting is abstaining from food, drink and sexual intercourse from dawn to sunset.

1. Is it possible to kiss your wife during the month of Ramadan while fasting? I'm surprised after reading your answer. I wanted to make sure again. 2. My friend is getting married. Is it possible to read nikkah in the month of Ramadan during the day, during fasting?

1. Yes, you can, and you can kiss and hug. The permissibility of this is clearly stated in reliable hadiths /14/.
2. Yes, you can. Definitely.

Is the fast broken if you masturbate at night?

Not violated.
Read more about what you asked in my book “ Men and Islam».

Tell me, is it possible to masturbate during the daytime during the fast?

You can’t, it will break your fast /15/. Let me note that a wet dream (ejaculation in a dream) does not break the fast.

Is fasting broken if ejaculation occurs in a dream? Andrey.

Does a wet dream in a dream ruin fasting?

Doesn't spoil it.

Is my fast broken if when kissing my wife, fluid comes out, but not sperm? A.

No, not violated /16/.

My wife is a Christian, but we got married according to Islamic canons. She respects my religion. I know that during fasting you can be intimate with your wife after sunset, but my wife is attracted to me in the morning, after sunrise. Will it be a violation of the fast if I provide her with “minimal intimate caresses” without engaging in sexual intercourse? Alexander.

Intimate caresses do not break the fast /17/, but strictly beware of close proximity (sexual intercourse)! /18/

/1/ He will be able to start it only after the end of the month of Ramadan and the holiday of breaking the fast (Eid al-Adha).
/2/ The form of atonement for deliberately broken fasts mentioned here applies only to the month of Ramadan. If the two-month fast is suddenly interrupted, you will have to start all over again. It is important to note that two months of continuous fasting should not fall on holidays (Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Fitr), when fasting is prohibited (haram). As for the menstrual cycle in women, these periods are not considered a violation of the continuity of the two-month fast. That is, during this period the woman interrupts the post-atonement, and upon completion, continues, taking into account those days that she has already fasted. If a person has made a mistake in counting the days, then he should not resume fasting from the very beginning.
/3/ Theologians of the Hanafi madhhab allowed the possibility of feeding one beggar for two months. Shafi'i theologians considered it appropriate to limit themselves to the text of the hadith, which speaks of feeding "sixty poor people."
/4/ The mentioned difficult form of atonement for sin is provided for by the canons only in the case of breaking the fast by deliberately engaging in sexual intercourse with a wife (husband). See, for example: ‘Ali Jum’a M. Fatawa ‘asriya [Modern fatwas]. In 2 volumes. Cairo: al-Salam, 2010. Vol. 2. P. 71. Some scholars spoke about a similar atonement in case of breaking the fast by deliberately eating and drinking water. However, this theological judgment does not have direct confirmation in the verses and reliable hadiths, and therefore remains a judgment with which one may not agree. See, for example: Az-Zuhayli V. Al-fiqh al-Islami wa adillatuh [Islamic law and its arguments]. In 11 volumes. Damascus: al-Fikr, 1997. Vol. 3. P. 1709. Here it is useful to recall the hadith: “If a believer who did not belong to any of the categories exempt from fasting did not fast on one of the days month of Ramadan, [then let him know that] he cannot make up for this day even with a whole century of fasting. [That is, every day of obligatory fasting is extremely important and valuable. If a person for whom fasting is obligatory ignores this, neglects this form of worship of the Creator, and misses a day, then not a single day of earthly life will be able to compensate for this loss. The scale is huge and unique. Of course, the believer makes up for what he missed in the future, but no other day of the year has any special significance for each day of the month of Ramadan].” Hadith from Abu Hurayrah; St. X. Ahmad, Abu Daud, Ibn Majah and others. See, for example: At-Tirmidhi M. Sunan at-Tirmidhi [Code of hadiths of Imam at-Tirmidhi]. Beirut: Ibn Hazm, 2002. P. 238, Hadith No. 722; Abu Dawud S. Sunan abi Dawud [Compendium of Hadiths of Abu Dawud]. Riyadh: al-Afkar ad-Dawliyya, 1999. P. 272, Hadith No. 2396; Ibn Majah M. Sunan [Compendium of Hadiths]. Riyadh: al-Afkar ad-Dawliyya, 1999. P. 183, Hadith No. 1672; as-Suyuty J. Al-jami‘ as-sagyr [Small collection]. Beirut: al-Kutub al-‘ilmiya, 1990. P. 517, hadith No. 8492, “Hasan”; al-Qaradawi Y. Fatawa mu'asyra [Modern fatwas]. In 2 volumes. Beirut: al-Kalam, 1996. T. 1. P. 308.
/5/ It is important to mention that along with these two months of fasting-atonement, one should make up for the broken day of fasting in the month of Ramadan with one day of fasting. That is, a total of two lunar months plus one day.
/6/ The same opinion is shared, for example, by the famous theologian of our time ‘Ali Jum’a, relying on an authentic hadith, which speaks of the husband and nothing is mentioned about the wife. See: 'Ali Jum'a M. Fatawa 'asriya. T. 1. P. 91.

/18/ The atonement for a fast broken in this way is a continuous two-month fast.
