The ruling on injecting insulin for the fasting person
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Umm Salim from Abha says: I am a diabetic patient and I use insulin. Is it permissible for me to break my fast?
Answer:
The insulin injected into the muscle does not invalidate the fast. It is the injection into the vein that does; that invalidates the fast. As for the one into the muscle, it does not invalidate the fast, but avoiding it is safer and more complete. Yes.
