How Should a Person Travelling in a Plane Calculate the Time for Suhoor and Iftaar? – Dr Zakir Naik
RDDZ-8-14
Yusuf Chambers: Okay that’s very-very clear. If a person is fasting and traveling long distance in a plane and is midway to his destination should he break his fast according to the time of origin or the time of destination as there is a difference between the two of several hours.
Dr. Zakir: This normally happens; and I do keep on traveling in Ramadhaan quite often in planes. And this is common problem and people are not aware of the Shariya or of the ruling. Many of them say O that I will break the fast according to the time of origin some say time of destination and there is big confusion between most of the travelers but the right ruling is that as Allah says in the Quran in
Surah Baqarah ch. no. 2 verse no. 187 that
“Fast until night appears”
And our beloved Prophet said in Sahih Bukhari Vol. no. 3 Book of Fasting Hadith no. 1954
That
“Until the sun sets”
So when a person is traveling in a plane it is very easy, he should just slide the window up and see the sun. The moment the sun sets, he can break his fast. He should not bother what is the time of origin, what is the time at the destination. He should see where he is from the position where he is, the moment if he sees the sun set, complete disk has vanished, he should break the fast.
Similarly for Suhoor, the moment he sees the vertical white streak of dawn, it is the false dawn. The true dawn is when he sees a reddish horizontal … when he sees that, it’s the time for Suhoor, he should stop eating.
So while a person is in a plane its very easy to… you don’t have to ask anyone, just slide the window up.. if its not from his side he can go to the other side and see the sun and decide whether the time is there for Suhoor or for Iftaar.
Yusuf Chambers: you have made it very .. it sounded very complicated.
Dr. Zakir: Very easy, very easy…
