Question

My husband is already experiencing diarrhea several times at the beginning of the fast. How should he proceed with the fast?

Answer

If he becomes weak and reaches the state of being ill, meaning he is bedridden or suffering throughout his body, he is exempt from fasting. 

He should eat and drink as usual.
