Does vaccination against meningitis invalidate fasting?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We received this question. The questioner asks: Does vaccination against meningitis invalidate fasting?

Answer:
It does not invalidate fasting. If it is an intramuscular injection, it does not invalidate fasting unless the injection contains a nutrient or contains medicines that enter the body and reach the stomach; in that case, it breaks the fast of the fasting person. Yes.
