Modern 10 Masala of fasting

 1. Donating blood while fasting

Donating blood while fasting does not harm the fast. So you can donate blood to your relative with peace of mind. However, drawing out this much blood is makruh, through which the fasting person becomes very weak.

عن تحبيت البنانى said: سيعل أنس بن مليك اكنتم تكرحون الحجامة لصايم? He said: لا, إلا من عجل الصاعم (صحيح البخارى, كتاب الصوم, باب الحجامة القيي السايم. Number: 1940)

Sabet Albunani Rah. Anas said. Who was asked, do you think it is makruh to put horns on the fast? He said, 'No. But if it becomes weak because of this, it will be makruh.' -Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 1940; Sunan Cobra Hadith 8346; Almuhitul Burhani 3/356; Raddul Muhtar 2/395

2: Dialysis by fasting

Neither of the two methods of conventional dialysis provides a reason for breaking the fast. So there will be no breach of oath or loss.
Badayus Sanaye-1/243.
Raddul Muhtar3/369
Fatawae Kasamiyyah, 11/490.

3: injection and insulin intake

Taking injections, vaccines, insulin, and saline does not break the fast; however, glucose-like injections, i.e., saline and injections that act as food, are not allowed to be taken during fasting except in serious illness. Alate Jadida Ki Shaari Ahkam, Page 153, Ibn Abidin, 3/367; Islam and Modern Medicine, page 327

In the book of Fatawa,

And unless it reaches the heart or the brain, it is not the original source of the evidence of the unmarried woman, for the evidence of the evildoers does not corrupt.

4-Inhaler use

Using salbutamol and an inhaler will break the fast. The medicine is sprayed inside the mouth to relieve breathing difficulties. It widens the suffocation area. As a result, there is no more difficulty breathing. It should be noted that although the medicine looks like a gas when sprayed, it is actually a liquid medicine with a body. Therefore, by spraying inside the mouth, the fast will be broken. But yes, if it is spit out without swallowing after spraying it on the mouth, then the fast will not be broken. If this is the case, the matter will be very easy. Apart from getting rid of shortness of breath, it will not break the fast. Ibn Abidin2/395;
Fatawaye Faqihul Millat 5/459 Hedaya 1/120

Some doctors say that after taking one dose of inhaler at Sahir, there is usually no need to use the inhaler until Iftar. So I want to fast-use an inhaler like this. Yes, if someone's chest disease becomes so severe that it becomes a liability to wait until Iftar without taking the inhaler, then they have the option of using the inhaler as needed and breaking the fast later. And if it is not possible to do Qaza, then fidiya will be collected. And if there is an injection alternative to an inhaler, then the treatment will be by injection. Because taking the injection while fasting will not break the fast. Islam and Modern Medicine, page 324; Surah Baqarah: 184; Raddul Mukhtar: 2/39.

5: For heart patients

Nitroglycerin aerosol is used by heart patients. According to the doctor, after giving 2-3 drops under the tongue, the drug immediately mixes with the blood through the vein. Therefore, after using this medicine, the fast will not be broken if the medicine does not go down the throat or the taste does not reach it. Fiqhul Nawazil, 2/299; Islam and Modern Medicine, P-325

6-take oxygen

Using medicinal oxygen while fasting will break the fast. But only taking oxygen from the air will break the fast. Because the cause of breaking the fast is the entry of food or medicine into the stomach or brain through the normal entrance. Bayhaqi Sharif, Hadith No-8512, Fathul Bari-4/207, Jadid Faqhi; Masael-1/188; Ibn Abidin-2/200; Khulasatul Fatawa-1/253.

7: Using paste or tooth powder

It is makruh to use toothpaste or brush teeth while fasting. And if it enters the throat or stomach, then the fast will be invalidated. So when the time of Sahri is over, you should refrain from using anything like paste or wax. In the condition described in the question, if the Azan is given while brushing after eating Sahri, the fast will be lost. Raddul Muhtar 2/415–416; Fatawa Khaniya 1/204; Hidayah 1/220)

8-Endoscopy

Chikan is a pipe with a bulb-like object at the head. The tube is inserted into the stomach, and the condition of the patient's stomach is monitored through an external monitor. If any medicine is used in this tube or water or medicine is sprinkled through the pipe, then the fast will be broken, and if no medicine is applied, then the fast will not be broken. Al Bahroor Rayek, 2/487; Almuhitul Borhani, 3/348; Jadid Fiqhi Masael, 1/126

9-Angiogram

When the heart is blocked, the catheter that is inserted into the heart through a special vein is called an angiogram. Even if there is some kind of medicine attached to this machine, the fast will not be broken. Al-Malakatul Fiqh-1/124.

10: Using eye medicine or drops during fasting

Using eye drops, medicine, surma, ointment, etc. will not invalidate the fast. Although their taste is perceived in the throat, Because the matter of not breaking the fast by giving eye medicine, etc. is proved by the principles of Hadith and Fiqh Shastra. Jadid Fiqhi Masa'il, 1/183; Al-Fatawa Tatarkhaniyyah, 2/366
