Question
Are school exams considered a justification for breaking the fast in Ramadan?
Answer
School and university exams are not considered a justification for breaking the fast for the student, as long as this student is an adult, sane, healthy, and resident; because the majority of students take exams while fasting without undue hardship, and fasting does not conflict with exam preparation. A Muslim relies on obeying God in the tasks of this world and the hereafter.
