Question

In the state of Ramadan should I avoid gargle and sniff water in to the nose in major impurity?

Answer

You should gargle and see that the water does not go beyond the throat or above the hard bone of the nose.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
