Subject : Does intramuscular injections invalidate one's fasting. It is worth noting that the latter injections were taking for two consecutive fasting days within Ramadan?
Fatwa Number : 1391
Classified : Things which Invalidate Fasting
Fatwa Type : Summarized Fatawaa

Question :

I became ill while fasting and had to take an intramuscular injection twice on two consecutive days during Ramadan. I continued my fast as usual, as I was told that intramuscular injections do not break the fast. Please advise me so that I can know the correct ruling.


 


 


 


 


 


The Answer :

Subcutaneous and intramuscular therapeutic injections are not considered as invalidators of fasting because they do not enter the stomach through an open passage. However, intravenous injections containing nutritional fluids do invalidate the fast, as they are akin to food and drink in purpose. Therefore, your fast is valid. And Allah Knows Best.
