Ramadan: fasting, Taraweeh and I’tikaaf

Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, the month of obligatory fasting. These are answers South African Darul Iftas have published to the questions people ask most around it: what breaks a fast, Taraweeh, I’tikaaf in the last ten days, Sehri and Iftar, and Sadaqatul Fitr before Eid.

56 fatawa from 8 South African Darul Iftas, picked by title for each question below, newest first and no more than two per Darul Ifta in a section. Every fatwa links to the page where its Darul Ifta published it.
