Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, what is the ruling on using an intravenous injection
The Shaykh:
in the muscle.
The questioner:
Knowing that it is not nutritional.
The Shaykh:
There is nothing wrong with an intramuscular injection if it is in the vein or under the skin, meaning, for the fasting person, there is nothing wrong with it because it does not go to the stomach and it does not provide nutrition. If it is under the skin or in the muscle, there is nothing wrong with it.
