What if you pass out while fasting?

Question

*if you are fasting and pass out does this automatically break your fast?

*what if you pass out and are given an IV to regain strength

*if someone is in a car accident while fasting and is injured or looses conciseness does the fast break

Answer 1

If you are injured or sick you don't have to fast. If you think it may affect your health more, you shouldn't. If you are injured or pass out whilst you are fasting then you can break your fast. You shouldn't risk your health like that, yes try your hardest, but it's simply some bodies find it very difficult to cope with, so you should make sure you are healthy to fast first. Prepare yourself, and if you are unable, or ill at the moment, then don't fast. You can make up for them when you are better.

Answer 2

Passing out or being injured doesn't break your fast, but if you do pass out you SHOULD break your fast immediately. You're not supposed to fast while you're sick and you're certainly not supposed to fast to the detriment of your health. If it's at the point where you're at the hospital and are given an IV, then you have an even greater reason to eat and drink.

Answer 3

One of my friends just got me my life saver package which includes :

Triple bacon burger with pork fried rice

and a can of cow-p**s of the hindu farm of mahatmi ghandu which i really njoyed and which revatalized my tastebuds

Answer 4

They don't break your fast, but you should immediately break your fast. If fasting can do harm to you (ie, you need an iv, unconsciousness, etc.), then you should break your fast. You can always make it up on another day.  

Answer 5

yeah, your fast has broken, but you can always make it up.
