Chapter on the Extent of Illness That Permits Breaking the Fast
وَ رَوَى بَكْرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ اَلْأَزْدِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: سَأَلَهُ أَبِي وَ أَنَا أَسْمَعُ عَنْ حَدِّ اَلْمَرَضِ اَلَّذِي يَتْرُكُ اَلْإِنْسَانُ فِيهِ اَلصَّوْمَ قَالَ «إِذَا لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ أَنْ يَتَسَحَّرَ ».
Bakr ibn Muhammad al-Azdi narrated from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام: "My father asked him while I was listening about the extent of illness that permits a person to leave fasting. Imam عليه السلام said: 'When they are unable to take suhoor (the pre-dawn meal).'"
