Question
This morning, by mistake, I forgot that today is the fast of the 10th of Tevet and drank coffee. What should I do? Should I continue fasting or is there no point?
Answer
Hello,
It is obligatory to continue fasting as usual.

If one vowed to fast on this day and forgot and ate, he should complete his fast; the same applies if it was a fast due to a dream or a public fast.
