I'm going to take the university exam. It coincides with the month of Ramadan. Can I delay my fast for that day?

Fasting is an act of worship that is one of the foundations of religion. However, it can be delayed in severe conditions that are fatal. How affected will you be in the morning hours that you will delay the fast? If you think about it well, you have gone many days without eating or drinking anything until noon before. The devil wants to grab you with the name of the exam. Never neglect your fast. Rather, see fasting as your secret to success in the exam.
