If a woman’s menses begins just before Maghrib and the call to prayer is made on time, she must make up that fast later. If the prayer call is delayed beyond sunset, then her fast is valid and she does not need to make it up.
Shaykh Muqbil states that if a woman breaks her fast due to postpartum bleeding, she must make up the missed fasts later. This ruling also applies if she stops fasting shortly before giving birth because of bleeding, as it is considered postpartum bleeding.
Shaykh Muqbil explains that if a person is permanently ill and doctors say recovery is unlikely, he may break the fast and instead feed a poor person for each missed day. This ruling follows the Quranic allowance for those who cannot fast due to illness.
Shaykh Muqbil explains that using a siwak (toothstick) during fasting is permissible, even if green. However, toothpaste should be avoided in Ramadan to prevent the risk of swallowing it. There is no clear evidence that toothpaste breaks the fast, but caution is recommended.
Shaykh Muhammad Bazmul states that anyone defending Abūl-Ḥasan al-Marʿibī is treated like a supporter of innovation. They are advised to return to the truth, and if they refuse, they are warned against, avoided, and their gatherings are not attended.
Shaykh Muqbil explains that using perfumes, incense, oud, and sprays is generally permissible while fasting. However, one should avoid perfumes and colognes that contain alcohol, both during Ramadan and outside of it, as alcohol is proven to be present in many of these fragrances.
Shaykh Muqbil advises that a sick person may break the fast and make it up later when medicine is needed during Ramadan. Using eye, nose, or mouth drops does not invalidate fasting unless the medicine reaches the throat, which often happens, so caution is recommended.
Shaykh Muqbil states that injections for treatment are generally allowed while fasting, but nutritive injections should be avoided. He advises the sick person to break the fast to avoid doubt and make it up later. The Saudi Permanent Committee confirms this ruling.
Shaykh Muqbil al-Wadi’i states that having a tooth removed does not break the fast even if some blood is swallowed. However, he advises delaying the procedure until after iftar when possible, to avoid harm and ensure safety.
Shaykh Muqbil al-Wadi’i explains that neither fainting nor vomiting invalidates the fast. He notes that the hadith stating involuntary vomiting does not require making up the fast is weak, and therefore should not be relied upon.
Shaykh Muqbil al-Wadi’i explains that when both praise and criticism exist, detailed criticism takes precedence if it comes from reliable scholars. However, if the critic is weak, biased, or has a hidden agenda, their criticism is not accepted. Context and credibility must be checked.
Shaykh Muqbil advises Muslims to avoid attending the lectures, gatherings, and mosques of hizbis and innovators. He encourages praying on the Sunnah, even with only a few people, and returning only when they follow correct Islamic teachings.
