Wear lens during fasting.
Mu' meneen Brothers and Sisters,
As Salaam Aleikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh.
(May Allah's Peace, Mercy and Blessings be upon all of you)
One of our brothers/sisters has asked
this question:
i
wanna ask if wearing lens while fasting nullify the fast?
the
lotion used with the lens may enters the eye and may reach the throat
(There may be some grammatical and spelling
errors in the above statement. The forum does not change anything from

Answer:
Wear lens during
fasting
In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His
help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide,
and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear
witness that there is none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear
witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His
Messengers.
There are five things
which will break or invalidate the fast:
- Eating
- Drinking
- Sexual intercourse
- voluntary semen discharge
- the menstruation of the woman while fasting
The wearing of the lens do not effect the validity of the
fast in the least, even if the lotion used with the lens were to enter their
eyes.
Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only
due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me
alone. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is
the Only Source of Strength.
Your brother and
well wisher in Islam,
Burhan
