Manhaj al-Salikin wa Tawdih al-Fiqh fi al-Din - Abd al-Rahman al-Sadi’ - (113)

248—If a pregnant or nursing woman fears for her child, she may refrain from fasting, but must make up the missed fast and feed one poor person for each day.

249—Anyone unable to fast because of old age or an illness from which recovery is not expected must feed one poor person for each day.

250—Whoever breaks the fast is required only to make it up if it was broken by eating, drinking, deliberately vomiting, cupping, or ejaculation caused by intimate contact.

251—The exception is one who breaks the fast through sexual intercourse1: he must make it up and emancipate a slave. If he cannot find one, then he must fast2 for two consecutive months; and if he is unable to do so, then he must feed3 sixty poor persons.

252—The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “If anyone forgets while fasting and eats or drinks, let him complete his fast, for it is Allah alone who fed him and gave him drink.” Agreed upon4.

253—He also said: “People will continue to fare well so long as they hasten to break the fast.” Agreed upon5.

1. The Shaykh said: “The correct view is that, for both the person who has intercourse and the person with whom intercourse is had, forgetfulness or coercion neither invalidates the fast nor entails expiation. Since forgetfulness is excused in the case of eating—the primary act that invalidates the fast—the same applies to intercourse.” *al-Mukhtārāt al-Jaliyya*, p. 63. 2. In B and T: “then he must fast.” 3. In T: “then he must feed.” 4. Reported by al-Bukhārī (4/155) and Muslim (no. 1155). 5. Reported by al-Bukhārī (4/198) and Muslim (no. 1098).

٢٤٨- والحامل والمرضع إذا خافتا على ولديهما، أفطرتا، وقَضَتَا، وأطعمتا عن كل يوم مسكينًا. ٢٤٩- والعاجز عن الصوم، لكبر أو مرض لا يرجى برؤه، فإنه يطعم عن كل يوم مسكينًا. ٢٥٠- ومن أفطر فعليه القضاء فقط، إذا كان فطره بأكل، أو بشرب، أو قيء عمدًا، أو حجامة، أو إمناء بمباشرة. ٢٥١- إلا من أفطر بجماع١ فَإِنَّهُ يَقْضِي وَيَعْتِقُ رَقَبَةً، فَإِنْ لَمْ يَجِدْ فَصِيَامُ٢ شَهْرَيْنِ مُتَتَابِعَيْنِ، فَإِنْ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ فَإِطْعَامُ٣ سِتِّينَ مِسْكِينًا. ٢٥٢- وَقَالَ اَلنَّبِيُّ ﷺ: "مَنْ نَسِيَ وَهُوَ صَائِمٌ فَأَكَلَ أَوْ شَرِبَ فَلْيُتِمَّ صَوْمَهُ، فَإِنَّمَا أَطْعَمَهُ اَللَّهُ وَسَقَاهُ" مُتَّفَقٌ عَلَيْهِ٤. ٢٥٣- وَقَالَ: "لَا يَزَالُ اَلنَّاسُ بِخَيْرٍ ما عجلوا الفطر" متفق عليه٥.

١ قال الشيخ: الصحيح أن الْمُجَامِعَ والْمُجَامَع ناسيا أو مُكْرَهًا أنه لا فطر عليه ولا كفارة؛ لأنه إذا كان الأكل الذي هو أصل المفطرات قد عفي فيه عن النسيان، فالجماع كذلك.
