Does resolving to break an obligatory fast invalidate it if the person does not actually break the fast?
General Chapter

Book of Fasting
Primary text
If one begins the obligatory fast and resolves to break it, but does not do so and then decides to complete the fast, it is not sufficient unless the intention to fast covers the entire day. This ruling contrasts with the voluntary fast, where the validity remains easier to maintain.
