Gifts of Knowledge

Shaikh Ibn Baaz, may Allaah have mercy on him, said, “The traveller has the choice of either fasting or not fasting, and what is apparent from the legislated proofs is that not fasting is better especially if the fast is difficult for him, due to the saying of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم, “Fasting during a journey is not righteousness.”
