The ruling on using eye drops for the fasting person
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Shaykh, may Allah preserve you. Regarding the one who uses eye drops during the day in Ramadan, is there anything wrong with that, O Shaykh?
Answer:
Yes, it is not permissible. This is because the eye is a passage, and the drop is a liquid that goes to the throat. However, if he does it and is careful, and if he tastes it in his throat, he spits it out, then there is no blame on him. But if he lets it go down to his throat, then this is one of the things that break the fast, because it is a liquid that enters the throat and the stomach. Yes.
