Eating After Hearing the Athaan
Assalamu Alaikum.
When I was taking my suhur, I rushed over to drink water when I heard the Muazzin say Allahu Akbar. Is my fast valid?

Drinking wine during daytime in Ramadan
Five years ago, my husband drank wine during the daytime of Ramadan and did not make up for that day. What should he do? How should he expiate for his sin? He did so only on one day after which he completed his fasts. However, he does drink wine outside the month of Ramadan. Please supplicate Allah to guide him and make him give up this sin.

Is one's fasting invalidated by eating while the azan of the Fajr prayer is being called?
One day in Ramadan, I happened to drink water just after the muezzin started the azan of the Fajr prayer by saying, “Allahu Akbar.” I was told by my uncle when I was young that doing this is permissible. Am I required to make up for that day? Am I also required to pay expiation for that same day?
