Question
If a person during Ramadhaan eats after mistakenly believing that his fast had been broken, but afterwards he is informed that his fast was valid, does he have to observe the 60 day Kaffaarah penalty?
Answer
If a fast is not broken, but one eats thereafter thinking that the fast is broken, the Kaffaarah penalty will not be applicable. Only Qadha is Waajib.
