I'm a muslim, I have to fast in ramadan. I was for seventeen days, the I come to know that I'm preganent. Last masuration was aug, 26 2007. I have to have my period on sep,22 2007. I checked for pregnancy after days of delay. By that time it was the seventeenth day of ramadan. My question is can I continue fasting for 13 days more?

Assalaam alaikum sister,

Alhamdlillah!

I would advise a talk with your doctor, before continuing the fast, just in case.
If he says there are no complications and that you can fast then continue fasting.

May you have a blessed Ramadaan!

Wa alaikum salaam

Dear aany from an islamic point of view its OK for you to not continue fasting if you fear harm either for you or your baby but of course you'll have to make up for the days you missed after ramadan (kada'a). The thing is, if you only fear harm for your baby (you not included) you'll have to make up for the days PLUS feed 1 underprivileged per every day you missed, BUT if you only fear harm for yourself (baby bot included) then you ONLY have to perform kada'a.
I hope this information is useful. Happy ramadan
