Chapter on Ruling of the Traveller and the Sick Person Regarding Fasting

And from him, from al-Hasan ibn Ali, from Rifaah, who said: I (narrator) asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, about ‘a man to whom travel presents itself in the month of Ramadan until he enters the morning.’ Imam عليه السلام said: “He completes his fast on that day.” He (narrator) said: “I asked, ‘Then he comes forward in the month of Ramadan, and there is not between him and his family except the morning part of the day.’” Imam عليه السلام said: “When dawn rises while he is outside, then he has the choice: if he wishes, he fasts, and if he wishes, he breaks the fast.”
