Swallowing a large amount of saliva by a fasting person

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: During fasting, I have a lot of saliva in my mouth, and I spit it out frequently in a noticeable way. Is it permissible for me to swallow it?

Answer:
They say it is disliked to gather one's saliva and swallow it; this is disliked, so one should not do it. If this happens without one's intention, gathering without intention, there is no harm in swallowing it, and one is not required to spit it out.
