متى تكون نية صيام القضاء

The time of intention for obligatory fasting, including the fast of the missed fast, begins from sunset on the day preceding the day to be fasted, and continues until dawn on the day to be fasted. It is not permissible to make the intention before sunset, nor after dawn, or during its rise, or even when the second dawn call to prayer, and it is desirable in the second half of the night, if the dawn breaks; Either the servant is fasting, or he is not, according to the last intention made before dawn, and it should be noted that the intention in fasting is not valid if it was held and determined during the day, or by the lapse of part of it, and the intention is permissible at the beginning of the night, in the middle, or at the end. Even if the servant did something that breaks the fast after making the intention and before dawn, such as eating and drinking. As for the ruling on establishing the intention to fast at night, the scholars held two views.
