Fatwa #787130 January 2003United States of America

If I am fasting, and in some way or form lose my Islam(get kicked and become kafir); but make shahada after that before sunset, is the fast accepted?

Question

I again failed to make known what my question was. Forgive me. I asked if kufr destroys fast if shahada is made and was told to elaborate. I shall insha Allah:If I am fasting, and in some way or form lose my Islam(get kicked and become kafir); but make shahada after that before sunset, is the fast accepted?

Answer

As soon as you leave the fold of Islam the fast is nullified. Therefore, the fast is broken and not acceptable.
