The ruling on eye drops for the fasting person
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This is a woman asking, and she says that she intended to fast the white days starting from this day, and she used an eye drop, and she found a taste in her throat. Does an eye drop break the fast of the one who is fasting?
Answer:
If she swallowed it, then it breaks her fast. But if she found its taste in her throat and spat it out and did not swallow it, then it does not harm her. Yes.
