The Obligation Of Fasting

 


The Obligation Of Fasting


Shaykh Sālih Ibn Fawzān Al-Fawzān حفظه الله said:


“The fast of Ramadān is obligatory upon every Muslim, and whoever embraces Islām during the month of fasting, then he only has to fast the remainder of the month. It is not necessary for him to make up what has passed from the beginning of the month. And the fast is obligatory upon the one who is mature. As for the child who has not reached puberty, then the fast is not obligatory upon him, yet his supererogatory fast is correct. It is proper for his guardian to order him with it if he is able, so he will become accustomed to it and be cultivated upon it.”
