Question:
- Does blood coming from one’s gums break their fast?
Answer:
- The book that comes from the teeth does not affect the fast. Although one should try to stay away from making it happen as much as possible. Also, like this is the person that gets nosebleeds, then he should try his best to stay away from those things that cause them. But he is not held accountable for it, and is not made to make up that day.
