Consultation:
During the month of Ramadan, a mukallaf decides to break his fast but he changes his mind before doing so. Is his fast valid? What about the fast other than that of Ramadan?

Answer:
Durig the month of Ramadan if he ceases intending to fast, i.e. he does not have intention to continue his fast, it invalidates his fast and intending again to proceed with the fast is to no avail. However, if he just decides to perform to take anything that would invalidate the fast, the validity of his fast is problematic an obligatory caution to complete the fast and later perform its quad as well. The same rule is applied to any fast which is obligatory for a specific day like that of nadhr.
