Swallowing one's saliva while fasting
Q 1: Does swallowing one's saliva during the daytime in Ramadan invalidate one's Sawm (Fast)? My mouth produces too much saliva, especially while I am reciting the Qur'an in the Masjid (mosque), which causes me embarrassment.
A: Swallowing one's saliva does not break one's Sawm even if in a large amount, whether this happens frequently, and whether one is in the Masjid or elsewhere. However, if a person has thick phlegm, they should not swallow it; they should spit it in a handkerchief or tissue, if in the Masjid.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
