Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If they are not from the usual place, meaning they are not inserted through the mouth, but rather through the front passage, the back passage, or elsewhere, do they carry the same ruling?
Answer:
Yes, they are all the same. Whether they are inserted through the mouth or through the anus, they break the fast of the fasting person because they enter the body cavity, pass into the body cavity, and enter the blood vessels and intestines, thereby breaking the fast. Yes.
