The ruling on eye and nasal drops for the fasting person
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah keep you safe. There are some points to note on this topic, Honorable Shaykh, such as drops in the eye or in the nose.
Answer:
A drop in the nose breaks the fast of the fasting person if he tastes it in his throat, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saidSunan Ibn Majah 407Sahih (Darussalam). Sniffing water, meaning in the ablution, yes, unless one is fasting. This indicates that if a person deliberately sniffs water vigorously while fasting and the water reaches his throat, that invalidates his fast because it is equivalent to drinking. As for a drop in the eye, the safest course is for a person to avoid it during the day and use it at night; because some scholars hold that it breaks the fast; because it goes to the throat as well and he tastes it in his throat. Yes.
