If you skip sehri of nafl fast, will the fast be valid?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
If I skip (unintentionally) sehri of nafl fast, will the fasting be valid?

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Yes, your sawm (fast) will be perfectly valid. It is mustahab practice to get up before Fajr time and to have sehri, it is not wajib or fardh which if missed may affect the validity of sawm.

Allah knows Best!
