The Ruling on Blood Coming Out After a Tooth Extraction for a Fasting Person

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: What is the ruling on one who has blood come out of him after having a tooth extracted or donating blood?

Answer:
As for donating blood, this breaks the fast of the fasting person because it is by his own choice. As for extracting a tooth, if blood flows from it, he is permitted to have the tooth extracted while fasting. Yes. And if blood flows from it, there is no blame on him and it does not affect his fasting because it is not by his own choice. However, he should try as much as possible not to swallow any of the blood, but rather spit it out.
