Q: If a person forgetfully eats whilst fasting does his fast break?
A: The fast will not break by forgetfully eating or drinking. (Bahishti Zewar vol.3 pg.10/11)
(إذا أكل الصائم أو شرب أو جامع) حال كونه (ناسيا) في الفرض والنفل (در المختار ج2 ص394)
(إذا أكل الصائم أو شرب أو جامع ناسيا لم يفطر ولا فرق بين الفرض والنفل كذا في الهداية (الفتاوى الهندية ج1ص203)
