Breaking the Fast in Ramadan Without an Excuse, and the Ruling on Swallowing Saliva and Phlegm

Question:
The Shaykh says: A person broke his fast due to this illness. Without an excuse. He knows the ruling in that matter and the warnings that have come regarding it, so what is your guidance on that? And is it permissible for a fasting person to swallow his saliva?

Answer:
He must repent to Allah, he must repent to Allah, he must repent to Allah. And if the authorities are pleased with him, he deserves to be punished; if the authority or other authorities are pleased with him, he broke his fast out of pleasure, he deserves to be punished, he is disciplined, then he returns to him for something like that, and he must make up the fast and seek success. As for swallowing saliva, there is no harm in it; swallowing saliva does not harm the fasting person. But when phlegm comes into the mouth, he should not swallow it; rather, he should expel it, because the scholars said that once it reaches the mouth, he is obligated to expel it and not swallow it. As for the blue [substance], there is no harm, but if it contains particles from the miswak or other things, it is better not to swallow it.
