Nutritional injections break the fast

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question: I read in some books of Islamic jurisprudence, including the book *Fiqh al-Sunnah* by its author, Shaykh Sayyid Sabiq, that nutritional injections and others that do not enter through the stomach or the mouth do not break the fast. I know that there is an opinion held by some jurists that states otherwise. What is the opinion known among the majority of scholars? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer: The correct view is that nutritional injections break the fast of the one who is fasting if he intentionally uses them, whereas ordinary injections do not break the fast. And success is from Allah.
