Is it permissible for a pregnant woman carrying twins in her seventh month to break her fast in Ramadan and make up the days after childbirth, or must she first attempt to fast with the intention of breaking it if she experiences hardship?

If a pregnant woman fears for herself, she is permitted to break her fast and only needs to make up the missed days. However, if she fears for her fetus, she is permitted to break her fast and must make up the missed days as well as feed a poor person for each day. If she fears neither for herself nor her fetus, she is not permitted to break her fast. If she strongly believes that fasting will harm her or her fetus, she is permitted to wake up having broken her fast. If she strongly believes that she can fast without harm, she must form the intention to fast overnight. Then, if an excuse arises during the day, she is permitted to break her fast, as Allah Almighty says: "And whoever is ill or on a journey - then an equal number of other days." The intention is that she should fast unless she expects harm to occur. If she expects that continuing her fast will cause harm, she should break it.
