Question
I fast every Mondays, Thursdays and on the 13th, 14th and 15th of every month. If I am invited for meals, on any of these days, should I forego fasting?
Answer
If nothing in conflict with the Shariah takes place at the function to which you are invited, then you may forgo the fast to answer the invitation. Then make qadha of the fast if you have already started the fast. If you have not commenced the fast, then there is no qadha. If the function is a haraam wedding reception, then never should you attend.
