If I travel to work or to visit family, whilst fasting and the distance is over 80 kilometers, does my fast become void?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

If you leave the boarder if your city or town or area before noon, the fat of the day is invalid, but if you leave after noon then the fast of that day remains valid.

If you reach your destination where you intend to remain for ten days or more, you Prayer should be full. If you reach there before noon,bayou can have the intention of fasting that day of arrival and your fast will be valid as far as you reached their before noon and you intend to stay there for ten or more days.

Can I take one meal a day, a kind of intermittent fasting, if I decide to do that one meal after Isha? Is there any ruling on not skipping breakfast?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Fasting in Islam has got a clear procedure in Quran and authentic Hadeeth. We need to follow it and not create or follow another fasting.

You need to consult you doctors whether have just one meal in 24 hours is not harmful for your health.

It is allowed to have one mail meal if you are not fasting but don't harm your health or cause dehydration.

I advise you to fast, so that you will get the spiritual and health benefits as well as reward of fasting.
