Swallowing phlegm
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The fifth question of Fatwa No. ( 20799 )
Q5: During fasting, phlegm forms in the throat and I am unable to expel it, so it is swallowed. Does this invalidate the fast?
A5: If phlegm does not reach the mouth, swallowing it does not harm the fasting person. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
