The ruling on swallowing phlegm for the one who is fasting
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: Is it permissible to sell the nakhama if one is unable to extract it?
Answer:
If the phlegm is in the throat and she swallows it, she owes nothing. However, if it comes out into the mouth and then she returns it and swallows it, it invalidates her fast, because the mouth is considered part of the exterior. So, if it reaches her mouth and she intentionally returns it, she breaks her fast. But if she was ignorant or forgetful, there is no blame on her. Yes.
