Missing a fast due to examinations

Feb 8, 2022 | Fasting

Question:-

I am a B.A student and will be writing my exams during the month of Ramadaan. If I experience difficulty in fasting, what should I do? Am I still required to fast, or am I permitted to omit the fast and keep the Qadhaa at a later stage?

Answer:-

In the queried scenario, you are not permitted to omit your fast of Ramadaan, nor are you permitted to break your fast. You should try and write your exam whilst fasting and Allah Ta’ala will assist you. [Re:- Fataawa Rahimiyyah Pg.256 Vol.7]
