Qadhaa of fast missed in Saudia due to menses
Question
I got my Haidh in Saudia a day before Ramadaan had started. The first fast in Saudia was on Saturday while the first fast in South Africa was on Sunday. I returned to South Africa after a week. My question is if I should make Qadhaa of the fast that I missed in Saudia?
Answer
You were in Saudia when the month of Ramadaan had commenced and you were therefore required to fast. However, you were unable to fast due to experiencing your menses. You will therefore be required to keep Qadhaa of the fast missed on the 1st day of Ramadaan in Saudia.
