The ruling on blood coming out of a fasting person due to a wound or bleeding
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a question from the Honorable Shaykh, in which the questioner says: If she cuts herself with a knife and injures her finger and blood flows, does that break her fast?
Answer:
A fasting person being wounded and blood coming out, a wound in the body of a fasting person and blood coming out of it, does not affect his fasting because it is not by his choice. Blood coming out through bleeding or a wound does not affect it, or through a nosebleed; all of this does not affect fasting. What affects fasting is if he performs cupping or draws a large amount of blood for donation or to treat a sick person; in that case, this invalidates the fasting. Yes.
