Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, does the oxygen given to an asthma patient in hospitals invalidate the fast?
Answer:
Yes, if it is accompanied by medication and water, it invalidates the fast. However, if it is merely air, with no medication and no water, it does not invalidate the fast. But oxygen is not provided without medication and water.
