Chapter on What Invalidates Fasting, What Impairs the Conditions of Its Obligation, and Nullifies Fasting

وَ عَنْهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ عَنْ أَبِي اَلْحَسَنِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: أَنَّهُ سَأَلَهُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَحْتَقِنُ تَكُونُ بِهِ اَلْعِلَّةُ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ فَقَالَ» اَلصَّائِمُ لاَ يَجُوزُ لَهُ أَنْ يَحْتَقِنَ«.
And from him, from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Abi Nasr, from Abu al-Hasan عليه السلام, peace be upon him: He (narrator) asked Imam عليه السلام about ‘a man who administers an enema (yahtaqin), while he has an illness in the month of Ramadan.’ Imam عليه السلام said: “The fasting person is not permitted to administer an enema.”
