Chapter on Making Up the Month of Ramadan, and the Ruling of One Who Breaks the Fast in It Intentionally and Forgetfully, and One upon Whom Fasting Two Consecutive Months Is Obligatory and He Breaks the Fast during Them, or upon Whom There Is a Vow Regarding Fasting

أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنِ اَلْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ مَعْرُوفٍ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنِ اِبْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ مَرْوَانَ عَنْ سَمَاعَةَ بْنِ مِهْرَانَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي قَوْلِهِ اَلصَّائِمُ بِالْخِيَارِ إِلَى زَوَالِ اَلشَّمْسِ قَالَ» إِنَّ ذَلِكَ فِي اَلْفَرِيضَةِ فَأَمَّا اَلنَّافِلَةُ فَلَهُ أَنْ يُفْطِرَ أَيَّ سَاعَةٍ شَاءَ إِلَى غُرُوبِ اَلشَّمْسِ«.
Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Isa, from al-Abbas ibn Maruf, from Safwan ibn Yahya, from Ibn Sinan, from Uthman ibn Marwan, from Samaah ibn Mihran, from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him: (Imam عليه السلام was asked) regarding his statement, ‘The fasting person has the choice until the decline of the sun.’ Imam عليه السلام said: “That is regarding the obligatory fast. As for the voluntary fast, he may break the fast at whichever hour he wishes until the setting of the sun.”
