Questions and Answers

Is taking part in suhoor (a meal before Fajr time) a condition for the fast to be valid?

It is mustahabb (recommended) to eat suhoor, as it has been encouraged by the Prophet (s). However, if one is unable to take part in suhoor, the fast will still be valid (Bukhari, 1923) (Muslim, 1095)
