The ruling on what a fasting person finds of the effect of water in his throat after taking a bath

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good, and may He reward you as well. He says: In the month of Shawwal, I was fasting, and while I was taking a bath, I felt moisture in my throat, but I did not know whether water had entered my throat or not. However, I completed my fast. What is the ruling?

Answer:
The ruling is that your fast is valid, and praise be to Allah. If water reaches your throat without your intention, it does not affect you. What is forbidden is intentionally sending water to your throat. As long as you did not intend it, it does not harm you, and your fast is valid. Yes.
