Applying medicine to external hemroids while fasting
Question
Will applying medicine to external hemorrhoids break one’s fast? If water remains on the hemorrhoid due to cleansing oneself after using the restroom, will it break the fast?
Answer
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
الجواب حامدا ومصليا ومسلما
Applying medicine to the external hemorrhoids does not break one’s fast nor does the fast break if water remains on the hemorrhoids after cleansing oneself.
والله اعلم
Allah Knows best.
