The Ruling on the Diabetic Injection and the Drop for the Fasting Person
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: What is the ruling on taking a sugar injection during the day in Ramadan? Does it break the fast or not? And what is the ruling on drops, whether they are for the eye, the nose, or the ear?
Answer:
As for taking a sugar injection, there is nothing wrong with it; because it does not go into the stomach, but rather it is under the skin, as has become clear to us or as we have learned from it. As for the drops, the fasting person should avoid them during the day; he should use them at night, which is safer for his religion and safer for his fast; because they reach the throat, and one cannot be certain that they will not reach the throat.
