Doubting whether one swallowed the taste of lip balm while fasting
Question
I wasnt sure if lip balm went into my mouth during fasting so I closed my lips and licked the inside of my mouth to try and taste it. I believed I swallowed in attempt to figure this out. I only realised after that I shouldn't have swallowed - although, I didnt taste any lip balm so, is mt fast valid?
Answer
If you are not sure whether you swallowed or not then the roza is valid.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
