    Muslims are required to abstain from consuming any food or drink during the fasting hours from dawn (Fajr) until sunset (Maghrib) and sexual relations between spouses are prohibited during the fasting hours. Following breaks the Fast:

    1. Smoking: Smoking cigarettes or other forms of tobacco breaks the fast, as it involves inhaling substances into the body.
    2. Vomiting Intentionally: If someone intentionally induces vomiting, and it is mouth filled, their fast is broken. However, if vomiting occurs unintentionally, it does not invalidate the fast.
    3. Menstruation and Postnatal Bleeding: Women who are menstruating or experiencing postnatal bleeding (postpartum bleeding) are exempt from fasting during those days. They should make up the missed fasts later, when they are able to do so.
    4. Ejaculation: Ejaculation due to sexual activity or self-stimulation breaks the fast. It’s important to avoid such activities during fasting hours.
    5. Eating or Drinking Forgetfully: If a person forgets they are fasting and eats or drinks something unintentionally, their fast remains valid. However, they should stop as soon as they realize what they are doing.
    6. Deliberate Consumption: Any deliberate consumption of food, drink, or any of the prohibited actions mentioned above intentionally breaks the fast.

    We typically break our fast at sunset. This time is when the sun goes below the horizon, marking the end of the fasting period. In Muslim traditions, such as during Ramadan in Islam, the fast is often broken with dates and water. Always check local sunset times to ensure accuracy of time.

    Fasting on Friday alone is forbidden because Friday is a special day for Jumma Namaz. Prophet Muhammad advised not to fast on Friday. Instead, have two fasts together on Thursday and Friday or Friday and Saturday together. This guidance is based on a Hadith where the Prophet said, “None of you should fast on Friday unless he fasts a day before it or a day after it” (Sahih Bukhari, Book 31, Hadith 206).

    Yes, you can whiten your teeth while fasting in Islam, as long as you ensure the whitening product does not enter your throat. External procedures like whitening strips or gels are permissible if you avoid ingestion.
