Islamabad: Is it permissible to continue eating and drinking until the Azan-e-Fajir?

Responding to this question, Maulana Dr Abdur Razzaq Iskandar underscores the necessity for fasting individuals to refrain from eating and drinking at the onset of dawn, marking the designated time for beginning the fast.

He emphasizes that regardless of whether one eats or drinks intentionally or unintentionally after Sehr time has ended, only Qada (make-up fasting) is required.

However, Kaffarah (expiation) becomes obligatory in cases where fasting is broken without a valid excuse.
