Fasting Rules from Islamic Laws by Ayatollah Sistani+PDF

This book aims to explain the fasting law and its conditions which are necessary for Muslims to know, according to the Risalah of Ayatollah Ali Hussaini Sistani.

There are nine acts which invalidate fast:
(i) Eating and drinking (ii) Sexual intercourse (iii) Masturbation (Istimna) which means self abuse, resulting in ejaculation (iv) Ascribing false things to Almighty Allah, or his Prophet or to the successors of the Holy Prophet (v) Swallowing thick dust (vi) Immersing one’s complete head in water (vii) Remaining in Janabat or Haidh or Nifas till the Adhan for Fajr prayers (viii) Enema with liquids (ix) Vomiting
Details of these acts are explained in this book.
