Question:
Also, you say that when cooking, there are aromas that I smell. Does that break my fast?
Answer:
No, smelling aromas does not break the fast, because aromas are not something one eats, they are not something one eats, and nothing enters the stomach. And few are those who are safe from smelling things. However, she should not intentionally smell delicious aromas; she should not do it intentionally. And if they reach her without her intention, that does not harm her. Yes.
