What Intention Should One Have When Keeping A Fast?

Share This Post

Intention is in the heart. It does not have to be said verbally. Eating Suhoor is an indication of the intent. However, if one does want to make a verbal intention, there is no reason to stop them. One could say:

وبصوم غد نويت من شهر رمضان ۔
“I intend to fast tomorrow for Ramadhān.”

If one stays hungry and thirsty, without intending to fast, the fast will not be counted.
