The ruling on the fasting of one who swallows blood

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, blood is forbidden due to its impurity, so does a person break his fast if he swallows blood while fasting?

The Shaykh:
Blood is forbidden because of its filthiness, and because it is harmful to health; it contains germs, as the doctors say. So it is forbidden because of its filthiness and its harm to the body, and because of its impurity, according to the view that blood is impure. So it is forbidden for several reasons. Does he say, "Does he say"?

The questioner:
He says, may Allah keep you safe, blood is forbidden due to its impurity, so does a person break his fast if he swallows blood while fasting?

The Shaykh:
If he swallows blood while forgetting or being ignorant, it does not affect his fast, even if he eats or drinks while forgetting, this does not affect his fast. However, if he intentionally swallows blood or anything else, if he intentionally swallows something while fasting, his fast is invalid.
