The term is usually used to refer to people who are fasting. So, the meaning of "mokel puasa" is intentionally breaking the fast before the designated time. Usually, this is done by people who can no longer continue their fast until the breaking time arrives, thus rendering their fast invalid. However, there are also people who intentionally eat or drink in secret. After satisfying their desires for food or drink, they pretend to still be fasting in front of others.

Uzur syar'i is a condition beyond human capability, which ultimately allows one to be exempted from performing the obligatory fasting during the month of Ramadan. For example, if one is physically unable to fast due to poor health condition. Continuing to fast in such cases would be detrimental to one's health. Islam itself is not a religion that burdens its followers, especially in matters of worship such as fasting. This has been explained in the following hadith:

"Indeed, religion is easy. And religion will never burden someone, but it will make things easier for them. Therefore, straighten yourselves, get closer, and spread the good news! Ask for help in the early morning, during the break time in the afternoon, and at the beginning of the night." (Narrated by Bukhari and Muslim) However, there are certain conditions for a Muslim who wants to invalidate their fasting. Considering that fasting in Ramadan is obligatory for both men and women who have reached puberty. So, when someone invalidates or does not fast, they are required to make up for it outside of Ramadan or pay fidyah."

With that, when a Muslim who has reached the age of maturity leaves the obligatory fast without any valid excuse according to Islamic law or breaks the fast without a valid excuse, then it is considered forbidden. In fact, Abu Umamah once said that the Prophet Muhammad saw once had a dream about the punishment of those who break the fast of Ramadan without a valid excuse: "While I was sleeping, I dreamt that two angels came to me and carried my shoulders. Then they took me to a place where I saw a group of people hanging by their bodies, blood flowing out of their mouths. I asked, 'Who are they?' He answered, 'They are the people who break their fast before it is allowed to break the fast.'" (HR. An-Nasa'i)
