Chapter on What is Obligatory for One Who Breaks the Fast or Engages in Intercourse in the Month of Ramadan Intentionally or Forgetfully
1892 - وَ قَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : «مَنْ أَفْطَرَ يَوْماً مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ خَرَجَ رُوحُ اَلْإِيمَانِ مِنْهُ وَ مَنْ أَفْطَرَ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ مُتَعَمِّداً فَعَلَيْهِ كَفَّارَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ وَ قَضَاءُ يَوْمٍ مَكَانَهُ وَ أَنَّى لَهُ بِمِثْلِهِ.
وأما الخبر الذي روي فيمن أفطر يوما من شهر رمضان متعمدا أن عليه ثلاث كفارات فإني أفتي به فيمن أفطر بجماع محرم عليه أو بطعام محرم عليه لوجود ذلك في روايات أبي الحسين الأسدي - رضي الله عنه - فيما ورد عليه من الشيخ أبي جعفر محمد بن عثمان العمري - قدس الله روحه -.
Hadith.1892 - Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) said:
"Whoever breaks a fast during the Month of Ramadan, the spirit of faith departs from him. Whoever intentionally breaks a fast in the month of Ramadan must offer one expiation and make up a day in its place. But how can he ever truly replace it?"
1893 - وَ رَوَى اَلْحَلَبِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ عَنْ رَجُلٍ نَسِيَ فَأَكَلَ وَ شَرِبَ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ قَالَ «لاَ يُفْطِرُ إِنَّمَا هُوَ شَيْءٌ رَزَقَهُ اَللَّهُ فَلْيُتِمَّ صَوْمَهُ».
Hadith.1893 - Al-Halabi narrated from Abu Abdullah (as) that he was asked about a man who forgot and ate or drank, then remembered.
Imam (as) said: "His fast is not broken; it is something that Allah (swt) has provided for him. Let him complete his fast."
1894 - وَ سَأَلَهُ عَمَّارُ بْنُ مُوسَى : عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَنْسَى وَ هُوَ صَائِمٌ فَجَامَعَ أَهْلَهُ قَالَ «يَغْتَسِلُ وَ لاَ شَيْءَ عَلَيْهِ.
قال مصنف هذا الكتاب - رحمه الله -: وذلك في شهر رمضان وغيره ولا يجب فيه القضاء هكذا روي عن الأئمة عليهم السلام.
Hadith.1894 - Ammar ibn Musa asked Imam (as) about a man who forgets while fasting and has relations with his wife.
Imam (as) said: "He should perform ghusl (ritual bathing), and there is no penalty upon him."
1895 - وَ رَوَى عَلِيُّ بْنُ رِئَابٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مَيْمُونٍ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يُجْنِبُ بِاللَّيْلِ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ ثُمَّ يَنْسَى أَنْ يَغْتَسِلَ حَتَّى يَمْضِيَ لِذَلِكَ جُمْعَةٌ أَوْ يَخْرُجَ شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ قَالَ «عَلَيْهِ قَضَاءُ اَلصَّلاَةِ وَ اَلصَّوْمِ ».
Hadith.1895 - Ali ibn Ri'ab narrated from Ibrahim ibn Maymun, who said:
"I asked Abu Abdullah (as) about a man who becomes junub (in a state of ritual impurity) at night during the Month of Ramadan, then forgets to perform ghusl (ritual bathing) until a week passes or the Month of Ramadan ends.
Imam (as) said: 'He must make up the missed prayers and the fasts.'"
1896 - وَ رُوِيَ فِي خَبَرٍ آخَرَ: «أَنَّ مَنْ جَامَعَ فِي أَوَّلِ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ ثُمَّ نَسِيَ اَلْغُسْلَ حَتَّى خَرَجَ شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ أَنَّ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يَغْتَسِلَ وَ يَقْضِيَ صَلاَتَهُ وَ صَوْمَهُ إِلاَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ قَدِ اِغْتَسَلَ لِلْجُمُعَةِ فَإِنَّهُ يَقْضِي صَلاَتَهُ وَ صِيَامَهُ إِلَى ذَلِكَ اَلْيَوْمِ وَ لاَ يَقْضِي مَا بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ ».
Hadith.1896 - It is narrated in another report:
"If someone has intercourse at the beginning of the Month of Ramadan and then forgets to perform ghusl (ritual bathing) until the Month of Ramadan ends, he must perform ghusl and make up his prayers and fasts. However, if he performed ghusl for Jumu'ah (Friday prayer), then he only needs to make up his prayers and fasts up to that day and does not need to make up what comes after it."
1897 - وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ اِبْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ اَلْقَمَّاطِ : أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَمَّنْ أَجْنَبَ فِي أَوَّلِ اَللَّيْلِ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ فَنَامَ حَتَّى أَصْبَحَ قَالَ «لاَ شَيْءَ عَلَيْهِ وَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّ جَنَابَتَهُ كَانَتْ فِي وَقْتٍ حَلاَلٍ.
Hadith.1897 - In the narration of Ibn Abi Nasr from Abu Sa'id al-Qammat:
Abu Abdullah (as) was asked about someone who became junub (in a state of ritual impurity) at the beginning of the night in the Month of Ramadan and then slept until morning.
Imam (as) said: "There is no penalty upon him, as his state of janabah occurred during a permissible time."
1898 - وَ رَوَى اِبْنُ أَبِي يَعْفُورٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لَهُ اَلرَّجُلُ يُجْنِبُ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ ثُمَّ يَسْتَيْقِظُ ثُمَّ يَنَامُ ثُمَّ يَسْتَيْقِظُ ثُمَّ يَنَامُ حَتَّى يُصْبِحَ قَالَ «يُتِمُّ صَوْمَهُ وَ يَقْضِي يَوْماً آخَرَ فَإِنْ لَمْ يَسْتَيْقِظْ حَتَّى يُصْبِحَ أَتَمَّ صَوْمَهُ وَ جَازَ لَهُ ».
Hadith.1898 - Ibn Abi Ya'fur narrated from Abu Abdullah (as):
"I asked him about a man who becomes junub (in a state of ritual impurity) during the Month of Ramadan, wakes up, then sleeps again, wakes up, and then sleeps again until morning.
Imam (as) said: 'He should complete his fast but must make up another day. However, if he does not wake up until morning, he may complete his fast, and it is valid for him.'"
1899 - وَ سَأَلَهُ عَبْدُ اَللَّهِ بْنُ سِنَانٍ : عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَقْضِي شَهْرَ رَمَضَانَ فَيُجْنِبُ مِنْ أَوَّلِ اَللَّيْلِ وَ لاَ يَغْتَسِلُ حَتَّى يَجِيءَ آخِرُ اَللَّيْلِ وَ هُوَ يَرَى أَنَّ اَلْفَجْرَ قَدْ طَلَعَ قَالَ «لاَ يَصُومُ ذَلِكَ اَلْيَوْمَ وَ يَصُومُ غَيْرَهُ ».
Hadith.1899 - Abdullah ibn Sinan asked Imam (as) about a man who is making up a fast for the Month of Ramadan. He becomes junub (in a state of ritual impurity) at the beginning of the night but does not perform ghusl until the end of the night, thinking that dawn has already broken.
Imam (as) said: "He should not fast that day but should fast on another day."
1900 - وَ سَأَلَهُ اَلْعِيصُ بْنُ اَلْقَاسِمِ : عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَنَامُ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ فَيَحْتَلِمُ ثُمَّ يَسْتَيْقِظُ ثُمَّ يَنَامُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَغْتَسِلَ قَالَ «لاَ بَأْسَ ».
Hadith.1900 - Al-'Is ibn al-Qasim asked Imam (as) about a man who sleeps during the Month of Ramadan, has a wet dream, wakes up, and then sleeps again before performing ghusl.
Imam (as) said: "There is no harm."
1901 - وَ رَوَى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ اَلْفُضَيْلِ عَنْ أَبِي اَلصَّبَّاحِ اَلْكِنَانِيِّ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ صَامَ ثُمَّ ظَنَّ أَنَّ اَلشَّمْسَ قَدْ غَابَتْ وَ فِي اَلسَّمَاءِ غَيْمٌ فَأَفْطَرَ ثُمَّ إِنَّ اَلسَّحَابَ اِنْجَلَى فَإِذَا اَلشَّمْسُ لَمْ تَغِبْ قَالَ «قَدْ تَمَّ صَوْمُهُ وَ لاَ يَقْضِيهِ.
Hadith.1901 - Muhammad ibn al-Fudayl narrated from Abu al-Sabbah al-Kinani, who said:
"I asked Abu Abdullah (as) about a man who was fasting and thought the sun had set because the sky was cloudy, so he broke his fast. Then the clouds cleared, and it became evident that the sun had not yet set.
Imam (as) said: 'His fast is complete, and he does not need to make it up.'"
