The ruling on performing a surgical operation on a fasting person
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: If a person undergoes a surgical operation to remove the appendix, does he break his fast or not?
Answer:
Yes. Performing the operation invalidates the fast because it requires other things. It requires opening the abdomen to remove the appendix, and it requires medicines that enter the stomach, and it requires nutritional injections and other things that accompany the operation. These things invalidate the fast. Yes.
