Ruling on breaking the fast by looking at the clock instead of the call to prayer 2247164151

Question

In our home, naturally in Ramadan, everyone breaks the fast after the call to prayer in the mosque. But my grandfather usually does not wait for the call to prayer. Iftar starts at the appointed time of the clock. One day in Ramadan, as usual, he broke his fast because it was time for Iftar on the clock. But later it was found out that the clock had accidentally gone about 12 minutes fast that day. As a result, he forgot that he had broken his fast long before it was time for Iftar. Now the thing to know from Muhtaram is, did that fast of Dada break? If it is broken, what should he do now? 7515998729

Your grandfather broke that fast because he ate prematurely. However, since he forgot that it was time for Iftar, he will only have to make up that fast, there will be no expiation. عن علي بن حنظلة عن أبيه, قال: شهدت عمر بن الخطاب في رمضان, وقرب إليه شراب, فشرب بعض القوم وهم يرون أن الشمس قد غربت, ثم ارتقى المؤذن, فقال: يا أمير المؤمنين, والله للشمس طالعة لم تغرب, فقال عمر: منعنا God bless you. Ali ibn Hanzala narrated from his father that he was with 'Umar in the month of Ramadan. A drink was offered to him. Some of those present drank, thinking that the sun had set. Then Mayazin gave a voice, O Amirul Muminin! The sun has not set yet. Then Omar Ra. Said, ... ‘Those who have broken their fast will make up a fast. And those who have not broken their fast should wait till sunset. (Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah, Narration 9137) 6564164464
