What should a person do who has recently embraced Islam and is concealing their conversion from their family, and is unable to fast Ramadan for fear of their conversion being exposed? Should they feed a poor person for each day, or make up the days later, or is there another solution?
A Muslim must fast as long as the conditions for fasting are met. It is not permissible for him to break his fast in order to conceal his Islam from his family. Muslims should help him and strengthen him in his religion.
