Maximum Number of Days a Traveller is Exempted from Fasting – Dr Zakir Naik

RDDZ-4-11

Yusuf Chambers: First one is from one of our viewers and he asked the question what is the maximum no. of days as a traveler that he can stay in a given city continuously and be exempted from his fast. For instance he goes on to say.. amm… if he is a student, he’s giving the game way here, if he is a student and he has traveled abroad for 2 months, is he exempted from his fast in Ramadhaan?

Dr. Zakir: Most of the scholars what they say that what is ruling for Salaah when a person travels as a Hadith I quoted earlier that

Our beloved Prophet Muhammad (saws) said, its mentioned in Sunan Ibn Maajah (Vol no. 3 Book of Fasting) Hadith no. 1667

That our beloved Prophet says that

“Allah (swt) has exempted a person from fasting and half of his prayers when he is traveling and exempted are women from fasting when she is pregnant” etc.

So the ruling what is there for Salaah as a traveler, it is the same as far a person who is fasting. And most of the Fuqahas, most of the scholars though there is a difference of opinion but as for salaah they say that maximum a person can stay in a city, in one place after he has left his own hometown is for 4 days. So most of the scholars they agree that same thing is for fasting that maximum they can stay in a city and can be considered as a traveler is for 4 days. If they extend then they will not be considered as a traveler. Though there is a difference of opinion in different schools of thought but the majority consider this.

Coming to the second part of the question that if a person goes for studies and stays in a foreign land maybe for two months or three months several months together will he be considered as a traveler No…if this condition he’s staying for a long time or months together as afar as fasting is concerned he will have to fast all the obligatory fast in the month of Ramadhaan
