Exaggeration in gargling and sniffing water for the fasting person
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a fasting person exaggerates in gargling and sniffing water while fasting.
The Shaykh:
What is reported is that one should not exaggerate in it; rather, it is reported regarding sniffing water. Yes.
The questioner:
He says: If he exaggerates while knowing the prohibition of doing so, and then water enters his stomach, but he did not intend to let it in; rather, he intended to exaggerate, what is the ruling on the fast?
The Shaykh:
The ruling on the fast, if it is confirmed that the water went down his throat, is that it breaks the fast. He must make up this day because he deliberately violated the hadith, and the water reached his throat, so he is not excused in this.
