Question : #144

Category: Fasting / Sawm / Roza

Subject:	blood donation during fasting
Question:	Can i give blood optionally during my fast?
Answer:	Salaam alaykum, Sayyid Khamenei states that, as an obligatory precaution, one must not have an injection into the vein. I don't know if drawing blood would be considered an injection or not, therefore, it would be best to ask the office.
