The ruling on an intramuscular or intravenous injection for a person who is fasting

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This is Umm Naif, and she says: I receive an injection intravenously, and this injection is a medication that is not a nutrient. Does this invalidate my fast or not?

Answer:
Yes, what is taken intravenously invalidates the fast of the one who is fasting, because it mixes with the blood and travels through the body. As for what is taken intramuscularly, it does not invalidate the fast. Yes.
