Sheikh, I’m diabetic and I take 4 tablets a day (500g each tablet) and I also have high cholesterol which I take one tablet a day. Do I need to fast or can feed the poor? Or should I fast or not?

29 May

ANSWER:

If you can take it before Fajr and right after sunset. This is the best as it seems that you are type 2 diabetic.

Consult a Muslim doctor and if he insists that you don’t fast and he tells you that fasting is not possible till you die, in this case, you may feed one poor person for everyday you miss.

I got a root canal done yesterday and I can literally taste the medicine in my mouth Is the fast accepted? Or should I do it some other time??

Regarding the last 10 nights of Ramadan when the reward is great, is the time for this particular event from Maghrib to Fajr, or the last portion of the night?
