Injections and needles for the fasting person
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
If a doctor prescribed injections for him. Injections of medication in the morning and evening. That is,
The Shaykh:
that is, with the enema? No, in the vein, or in the hand, or in the leg. If it is with food, instead of food, it breaks the fast, like the nourishing IV drip.
Another questioner:
By administering it.
The Shaykh:
It takes the place of food and breaks the fast, but if it is an analytical needle, or for energy, or for activity, or for strength, this does not break the fast. Yes. I visited.
