i have a serious question
a friend of mine called me and told me that yesterday she wanted to fast, so the day before she put the alarm to get up , but i do't know why she couldn't get up , when she got up it was too late for fasting, and she was soo sad because she made the intention the night before that she will fast;
so when she got up, she prayed fajr and went back to sleep with then intention that even she didn't eat , she 'll still fast, but was hesitating because she has never fast without eating and if she tells her parents that she fast without eating , the ywon't be happy; but she still made the intention of fasting
when she got up again , she took her breakfast , as if she never made the intention , because she wasn't sure if a fast is valid without eating in the morning , so she ate
and nw she is deeply regreting , because she made the intention and she remembers it's a big big sin and want to repent , but is sooo upset
i had always heard , but i'm not sure if it is true, that the non obligatory fasts aren't valid if u don't get up at sehr to eat something and only during ramadhan if it happens by mistake that u couldn't get up, u can still fast
what can u suggest me to tell her? because she is so afraid of this major sin she did , and want to repent
