Water entering the throat whilst fasting

Feb 26, 2024 | Nullifying Factors

Question:-

I kept a fast with the intention of Qadha. However,I broke the fast accidently by allowing water to enter my throat. I was aware that I was fasting when i drank the water. What is the Kaffarah?

Answer:-

In the queried scenario, your fast will be invalid and you will have to keep Qadha of the invalid fast. There is no Kaffarah.
