Or do we need to complete the fasting? The main issues are that it is hard to tell when iftar time is while flying over the Atlantic and we cannot control when the airline provides meals.\\n\"}]}","answer":"{\"ops\":[{\"insert\":\"A traveler is not allowed to break their fast if their journey began after fajr, as in your situation. This is the legal position of the Shafi'i and Hanafi schools. However, according to the Hanbali school, a traveler can terminate their fast upon leaving the city limits, even if they began their journey after fajr. Nevertheless, I wouldn't recommend ending your fast when there are only four hours remaining, especially if you're not facing any hardship in observing the fast.\\n\\nMake your best effort to plan ahead, but if you find it too challenging, you can opt for the Hanbali dispensation.\\n\"}]}","tags":[{"_id":"668d9fde0b76658b4c232774","tag":"Fasting: Ramadan","count":97},{"_id":"668da00d0b76658b4c232cca","tag":"Airplane","count":10}],"createdOn":"2024-07-09T20:39:56.443Z"}
