The ruling on one who is harmed by exaggerating in sniffing water during ablution

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: Your Eminence, when I exaggerate in sniffing water during the ablution, I am afflicted with severe pain in the nerves of the nose and head that lasts for several seconds. Is this what we are commanded to do in the Islamic Shari'ah?

Answer:
No, do not exaggerate in a way that harms you. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Snuff up water freely unless you are fasting.بالغ في الاستنشاق إلا أن تكون صائمًا
Sunan Abi Dawud 2366Sahih (Al-Albani)
If it is difficult for you, then sniff water and remove the impurity from your nose, and that is sufficient. Do not exaggerate in a way that harms you. Yes.
