The ruling on the asthma inhaler for the fasting person

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is the inhaler used for asthma one of the things that break the fast?

Answer:
By Allah, this is very difficult, but a fatwa was issued by Shaykh 'Abd al-'Aziz (may Allah have mercy on him) and the members of the Committee at that time that it does not harm and does not break the fast. As for me, I have a concern about it, because we asked about the reality of the inhaler and they said it contains medicine and also a water substance. I have a problem with it, but the Shaykhs issued a fatwa that it does not harm. Yes.
