A person is traveling at night, and the time for suhoor begins during the journey. Is he allowed to fast? Follow-up: My friend will be on a flight during suhoor time and will land at 6:00 AM. Should he fast?
Answer
In name of Allah, he may break his fast during the journey after dawn and make it up later. However, if he does not break his fast and returns to his legal home before noon, he must form the intention to fast and continue fasting, and it will be valid. Allah knows best.
