Fasting for Those Who Do Hard Work
A man works in a place where his job is very hard to the extent that he reaches a point of collapsing due to the intense heat, and he does not feel hungry, but he feels extremely tired. Is it permissible for him to break his fast?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: Hard work does not permit breaking the fast, except if it reaches a level where one fears for their life or mental capacity due to fasting, then it is permissible for them to break their fast, and they must make up for it on another day. And God knows best.
