Blood coming out of a fasting person intentionally or unintentionally

Q: One day in Ramadan, I accidentally touched my nose and this caused few drops of blood to come out of it. Does this bleeding affect (Part No. 10; Page No. 264) my Sawm? Is my Sawm that day counted or I am supposed to make up for that day?


A: If the reality is as you mentioned, then your Sawm is counted and you do not need to make up for that day, as you have not done anything that might render your Sawm invalid.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
