Fast must be replaced if broken early, says Sabah Mufti

KOTA KINABALU: Muslims who broke their fast after hearing the Maghrib azan (call to prayer) which was broadcast four minutes ahead of the actual time on the radio, will have to replace their fast after the month of Ramadan.

Sabah Mufti Datuk Bungsu Aziz Jaafar commended Radio Tawau’s effort to air the azan, however, he said they must be more careful to avoid the mistake of airing the call to prayer too early.
