Question:
I have a blood test appointment in two days. Can I have the blood test whilst fasting? Will it break my fast? Is it permissible to have a blood test whilst fasting?
Answer:
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
It is permissible to have a blood test whilst fasting.[1] However, it may weaken a person. Therefore, it may be advisable to postpone the blood test for after Ramadhan if it is not urgent.
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best

I will be travelling soon and therefore I need to have a meningitis vaccination injection. I can only do this whilst I am fasting. Is it allowed?
Answer:
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
A fast is broken when a substance with a discernible body reaches the digestive system via the natural openings of the body like the mouth, rectum, nose etc.[1]
The above does not take place in meningitis injections. Therefore, it is permissible to be vaccinated by means of injections whilst fasting.[2]
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
