SWALLOWING ONE'S PHLEGM WHEN FASTING


Recommended Posts

Question: What is the Islamic ruling in regards to swallowing one's own phlegm?

Answer: It is preferable for the fasting person not to swallow phlegm that has reached the mouth as a measure of recommended precaution, although it is permissible for him to swallow it. Similarly, it is permissible for him to swallow the saliva that has gathered in the mouth, even in large quantities.
