QuestionWhat is the ruling on one who eats or drinks during the day in Ramadaan by mistake?. AnswerPraise be to Allah. There is no sin on him and his fast is still valid, because Allaah says at the end of Soorat al-Baqarah (interpretation of the meaning): “Our Lord! Punish us not if we forget or fall into error” [al-Baqarah 2:286] and it was narrated in a saheeh hadeeth from the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) that Allaah said, “Your prayer is accepted.” And it was narrated from Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Whoever forgets when he is fasting and eats or drinks, let him complete his fast, for it is Allaah Who has fed him and given him to drink.” The same applies if he has intercourse, forgetting that he is fasting. His fast is still valid according to the more sound of the two scholarly opinions, because of the verse quoted above and because of this hadeeth, and because the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Whoever breaks his fast in Ramadaan by mistake does not have to make it up or offer any expiation.” Narrated and classed as saheeh by al-Haakim; classed as hasan by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Jaami’, 6070. This wording includes intercourse and other things that break the fast, if the fasting person does them by mistake out of forgetfulness. This is by the mercy, generosity and kindness of Allaah, to Whom be praise and thanks. Answered by Ustadh Tabraze Azam Question: Assalam alaykum Today I was in the bath and swallowed water while fasting. I involuntary swallowed it. Because of this will I have to do perform the fasting expiation? The reason I ask about expiation is because I waited even though I knew I might involuntary swallow. Answer: Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullah, No, there is no fasting expiation (kaffara) for accidentally swallowing water. But you would need to make this fast up (qada’) after Ramadan. An accident or mistake occurs when a person is aware of their fast, yet something involuntary happens, such as in your described case. This is different to forgetfulness which is doing something invalidating whilst being unaware of the fast. The latter has no consequence on your fast. Ask Allah Most High for forgiveness, and then continue proceeding to him with the fasts and your other worship. May He grant you tremendous facilitation.
