Eye, Nose, and Ear Drops for the Fasting Person

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a question from a fasting person about using eye, nose, and ear drops during the fast of Ramadan: do they break the fast or not?

Answer:
What reaches the throat breaks the fast, and what does not reach the throat does not break the fast; this is the rule. However, it is better and more cautious for him to postpone the drops until night. If he uses them during the day and something reaches his throat, he should hasten to spit it out and expel it, in which case it does not harm him. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
