Breaking the fast is not permissible unless fasting becomes unbearably difficult, or a trustworthy doctor states that fasting would worsen the illness or delay recovery. Mere thirst does not permit breaking the fast unless harm is feared. As for what is heard in sleep, it is advisable to be diligent in maintaining ritual purity, reciting the remembrances before sleep, and performing (Islamic incantation).
