Some people continue eating during the course of the Fajr Athaan.

Question

Some people continue eating during the course of the Fajr Athaan. They say that it is still permissible to eat when the Athaan is recited. Is this correct?

Answer

The Athaan does not signify the end of Sehri time. Athaan is recited at different times in the Musaajid. Eating should stop just prior to Subuh Saadiq. The Athaan is recited after Fajr time has set in. The fast will not be valid. Check the timetable of your area.
