Fasting of the patient who is advised to drink water

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Also, among the questions, may Allah preserve you, he says: How does one fast when the doctors have advised him to drink water every three hours?

Answer:
This is a sick person, and he does not fast. He breaks his fast and makes it up when Allah the Exalted cures him. He said, the Exalted:
and whoever is ill or on a journey - then an equal number of other daysوَمَن كَانَ مَرِيضًا أَوْ عَلَىٰ سَفَرٍ فَعِدَّةٌ مِّنْ أَيَّامٍ أُخَرَ
[Al-Baqarah 2:185]
