Grand Ayatollah Shirazi Says Unintentional Ingestion Does Not Invalidate Fasting
\n——————————–
\nSenior Shiite religious authority Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Sadiq al-Hosseini al-Shirazi said that anything swallowed unintentionally or by mistake while fasting does not invalidate the fast.<\/p>\n
The remarks were made during his daily scholarly session held on Sunday, the 4th of Ramadan 1447 AH, where he responded to questions from attendees on various jurisprudential matters, continuing a series of regular religious discussions.<\/p>\n
Addressing a question on the ruling of eating or swallowing something during fasting due to forgetfulness, Grand Ayatollah Shirazi explained that any substance that enters the body unintentionally or as a result of oversight poses no problem and does not nullify the fast.<\/p>\n
He clarified, however, that deliberate ingestion, even in a very small amount, invalidates the fast. The distinction, he noted, lies between actions committed unintentionally and those done knowingly and intentionally during the fasting period.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
