Fatwa #419221 December 2001South Africa

You say that the asthma inhaler invalidates the fast but I heard it doesn't.It is not ingested like a normal medication but inhaled.Will this make any difference regarding whether it breaks the fast.

Answer

The inhaling of the asthma pump invalidates the fast. There is no difference
between the ingestion and inhaling of medication.
