The ruling on one who has blood discharged while fasting
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question: If a person is fasting and blood is discharged from him, is he required to break his fast or complete his fast?
Answer: The discharge of blood does not harm the fasting person, except in the case of cupping. If he undergoes cupping, the correct view is that he breaks his fast by cupping. There is disagreement among the scholars on this, but the correct view is that he breaks his fast by it; based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):. As for if he has a nosebleed or if he is injured in his leg or his hand while fasting, his fast is valid and that does not harm it.
