Explanation:

It is the name of a valley between Makkah and Usfan.
2:
If the mujahideen have reached such a place beyond which there is a fear of encountering the enemy, then in such a situation it is better to break the fast. And if it is certain that the enemy is present ahead for confrontation, then breaking the fast becomes necessary.

Benefits and Issues:
➊ Fasting or not fasting during travel depends on each individual's circumstances and personal preference.
➋ The noble Companions (radi Allahu anhum) had a deep understanding of the true nature of the statements of the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam): which statement was merely an encouragement and which was a firm command (azimah). In matters of firm command (azimah), opposing the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) is never permissible in any way. This is why it is said that deduction and ijtihad (independent juristic reasoning) is the work of well-grounded scholars. For legal verdicts (fatawa), one should refer only to those who possess a complete mastery of the understanding of the Qur'an and Sunnah.
