Is it permissible to break the fast in Ramadan due to strenuous military training if a mistake in training results in punishment by strenuous training?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
It is not permissible for a resident Muslim to break their fast during the day in unless they are ill, and military training is not an excuse that permits breaking the fast; therefore, fasting is obligatory. However, if he is compelled to undergo strenuous training that prevents him from fasting, then it is permissible for him to break the fast, and he must make up for it later.
