Question
I was fasting, but had breakfast. Whilst having breakfast I did not remember that I was fasting. Only after completing the breakfast did I realize that I was fasting. What is the state of my fast?
Answer
If while having breakfast you did not at all recall that you were fasting, then your fast is valid. However, if whilst eating you remembered that you were fasting, but continued to eat, then the fast will not be valid. You then have to make one Qadha fast.
