Drinking water one minute after sehri time ends

· 6 Dhuʻl-Hijjah 1440 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

As I am fasting I thought the last time for sehri was 3:50am (mistakenly) but the actual last time for sehri was 3:49am. I drank water at 3:50am sharp. Would my fast be valid?

Answer

As a precaution keep one qadha.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

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.”
