Ramadan

[umm Zachariah]

Bismillah


Assalamu alaikum Latifa


As I understand it TAKING out blood deliberately, I think cupping is mentionend in the first fatwa and testing blood is mentioned in this other fatwa, are in the same 'group'.


If you cannot do this test during the night, when you do not fast, and are so sick that you cannot be without taking them during daytime, then you should not fast at all. Then you are sick, and you should not fast.


But bleeding from the nose is not something you PLAN to do, or if you fall and injure yourself so you will bleed, that is neither someting you plan to do, so then you do not do it deliberately and therefore your fast is valid.


This is how I understand it.


Assalamu alaikum Alliex


Yes when you do not know, then you are on a learning stage - and you have now learnt something [img]style_emoticons/default/smile.gif[/img]. Well as you say, you will make up for it insha'Allah.
