The ruling on inhaling the steam of hot water for the one who is fasting
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner says: Inhaling the steam of hot water with cloves, lemon, and ginger, does it break the fast?
Answer:
Mere inhaling does not break the fast, but it is disliked for the one who is fasting to inhale or to bring to his mouth anything that stimulates him and enters his nose and chest in order to stimulate him. This is disliked because it disrupts the fast.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence the Shaykh
