Follow Islamic practices such as fasting with flexibility; Respect individual choices; Be mindful of your health while travelling;

The hadith narrated by Tawus and Ibn Abbas tells us that the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ set out from Medina to Mecca in the month of Ramadan and fasted until he reached Usfan. He then asked for water, raised his hand so that people could see him, broke his fast and did not continue fasting until he reached Mecca. This shows us that it is permissible for Muslims to break their fast while travelling if they wish. Ibn Abbas used to say that the Prophet ﷺ sometimes chose to fast during journeys while other times he chose not too, thus giving people the freedom of choice when it comes to fasting during travels. This hadith teaches us about being mindful of our health while travelling as well as respecting individual choices when it comes religious practices such as fasting.
