Q: Is it permissible for a fasting person
to cool themselves with water after the Zhuhr (Noon) Prayer during the blessed month of Ramadan
by splashing some on oneself or swimming in a pool? Please enlighten us, may Allah reward you with the best.
A:
It is permissible for a fasting person to do so, which will have no effect on the validity of Sawm (Fast), as it is authentically reported that the Prophet (peace be upon him) used to take a bath while fasting. However, one should be on guard lest water leak into their throat. (Part No. 10; Page No. 277) May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
