Ghusl after Sehri

Question

I am married i like to know its necessary to take a janabat bath after sexual contact during ramadan months before subahi azaan or is janabat bath is necessary only if iam performing prayer and is the bath is not important for fasting ?

Answer

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatoh

The fast is valid even if one had not taken a compulsory bath before Subah Sadiq. The bath is necessary for the fajr prayer. The ghusl should not be unnecessarily delayed risking one to miss the Fajr prayer.

And Allah knows best

Wassalam

When does sehri end and iftar begin?

“You should follow the Sehri (Suhoor) time of the location where you are physically present at the time of Sehri. If you are in Doha at the time of Sehri, then you will follow the Sehri time of Doha and begin your fast accordingly.”
