Can I Break My Fast Because Of Hard Examination Or Test To Enable Me Read? by Lukgaf(m): 11:03am On May 31, 2018
Praise be to Allaah.
It is not permissible for one who is accountable to break his fast in Ramadaan because of exams, because that is not one of the excuses that are allowed in sharee’ah. Rather he has to fast, and do his studying and revision at night if it is too hard for him to do that during the day.

Those who are in charge of exams should be kind to the students and not make the exams in Ramadaan, thus serving two interests, the interests of the fast and to help the students prepare for the exams. It was narrated in a saheeh report from the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him): “O Allaah, whoever is put in charge of any of the affairs of my ummah and is kind to them, show kindness towards him, and whoever is put in charge of any of the affairs of my ummah and is harsh towards them, show harshness towards him.” (Narrated by Muslim in his Saheeh).

So advice to those who are in charge of exams is to be kind to the students and not to have exams in Ramadaan, but to have them before or after. We ask Allaah to give us all strength.

Allah(swt) has perfected your religion and made it easy for yu. Imagine if this was your last Ramadan, would u still break your fast? Some questions are really not meant to be asked

Ouch Dam,n. Must I be a Muslim before I comment on Nairaland?
Hell No, Use Sallah as a case study, He broke his fast for a UEFA Champions League final and He eventually got injured at the 30th minutes. if he hasn't break his fast maybe he would have gotten a chance of playing full-time.
Don't compromise your faith because of anything.

La iqraha fiddin. My understanding is any condition that means harm will come from your fast then it means conditions are relaxed (God is oft forgiving).

I wouldn't skip fast for exams. I wrote lots of exams in Ramadan as an undergraduate, and it was fun. All my attention was on qur'an and my books. No worries about hunger, and the stress of cooking during the day was eliminated

Sincerely I don't think preparing and writing exams during Ramadan should be an issue intact it gives you to prepare better cos of the concentration you will enjoy. However seek Allah's understanding, he is the all knowing and most forgiving, what are your intentions if you do break the fast? Do you intend to pay back? Do you intend to feed the number of people required etc

Is not a must comment thread, you can just read and pass if you are ignorant of the message.

Religion is not by force and shouldn't be perceived as a bondage!!!!! Fasting to me is all about discipline and focus. so if your focus is going to be divided then you have to leave one for another. break your fast and concentrate on your future !!!!

A hoax/satanic post on an Islamic Forum of Nairaland as above gained 20 likes in seconds and not a single like for the poster who took his time to share such a beneficial clarification...

Nairaland has become quite a delicate place for true Muslims, despite the commendable efforts by Seun to promote tolerance, the Shaitan's have hijacked every possible thread...

My advice for weak/new Muslims present here is that youu stop visiting Nairaland and learn from Quran and hadith directly...too many atheist and kufar on this forum desperate to mislead you and turn you away from Allah.


If lost Islam do not blame the internet blame your stupidity allowing Nairaland posts to feed into your soul...brothers and sisters be warned

I repeat only an educated and well grounded Muslim can survive on a forum littered with atheist and hypocritic Christians who has now graduated from taking Jesus as son of God into calling him God.

Jesus will deny all of them and exonerate himself before Allah...

Be warned.


Asalamaleikum warahmatulah wabarakatuhu

This is not one of the conditions stated by Allah not to allow people fast
Re: Can I Break My Fast Because Of Hard Examination Or Test To Enable Me Read? by EmmGee: 10:38am On Jun 01, 2018
but op I've heard notable peeachers say it depends ob your situation. there are some situations where it is permissible to break it for the exams and there are some where it isn't. that is why they adviced thr person should speak to his local imam for guidance.

In Islam,fasting is compulsory as long as you are not among those excluded. you can only break your fast if you are up for repercussion.
