Making up a Fast, then Broke it Intentionally – Shaykh bin Baz (rahimahullah)

Shaykh bin Baz (rahimahullah) was asked:

One day I was making up an obligatory fast and after Dhuhr I felt hungry, so I ate and I drank intentionally and not out of forgetfulness, what is the ruling on this?

Obligatory upon you is to complete the fast, it is not permissible to break the fast if the fast was an obligatory one, such as making up a fast from Ramadhaan or a fast which you vowed to perform, upon you is to repent from what you have done and whoever repents (sincerely), Allah accepts their repentance.

Paraphrased from Majmoo’ Fataawa Shaykh bin Baz (rahimahullah) Vol.15 page 355

Sweetest of that which is in the Dunya – Ibnul Mubaarak

On the Authority of Al-Hussain ibn Al-Hasan Al-Maroozee who said: I heard ibnul Mubaarak say:

“The people of the dunya exited the dunya before tasting the sweetest of that which is in it. It was said to him, and what is the sweetest of that which is in it?

He said: Ma’rifatu Allah – azza wa jal – (knowledge and awareness of Allah).”
