wa rahmatullah,

were you referring to the hadith "The fast of the month of Ramadan is suspended between heaven and earth and is not raised up except by zakat al-fitr" ? If so I'm interested in your research.

for the above explanation also.

While the 2 chains for the hadith are weak and not extremly weak, the purport of the hadith is problematic, as it indicates that the fast isn't accepted without Sadaqat al-Fitr. This isn't backed up by other ahadith, as they show that the fast is perfected through it and not that the fast is totally dependent on it for acceptance.

And Allah Ta'ala knows best
