Reading Time: < 1 minute
Q. Is it permitted for one to fast while having the flu/bronchitis? Does the bringing up of slime/mucous on the chest break one’s fast?
A. It is permissible to fast when having flu. The phlegm on the chest does not break the fast. If it comes up to the mouth it should be expelled from the mouth.
