Reasons why someone would break their fast
Menstruation
One of the most common reasons why women would break their fast is because of menstruation. During this time, it is not permissible for women to fast as it may cause harm to their health. It is important to note that this is not a sin and women can make up for the missed fasts at a later time.
Pregnancy
Pregnant women are also exempt from fasting as it may affect the health of the mother and the unborn child. It is important for pregnant women to consult with their doctors to determine if they are able to fast or not. If not, they can make up for the missed fasts at a later time.
Illness
Those who are ill or have a chronic medical condition that requires medication or treatment are also exempt from fasting. However, it is important to consult with a doctor to determine if they are able to fast or not. If not, they can make up for the missed fasts at a later time.
Traveling
Traveling is also a valid reason for breaking the fast as it may cause hardship or difficulty in performing the necessary religious duties. Those who are traveling can make up for the missed fasts at a later time.
Extreme hunger or thirst
In some cases, extreme hunger or thirst may cause harm to an individual’s health. In these situations, it is permissible to break the fast to prevent harm to one’s health.
