Because God Almighty says
فَمَنْ كَانَ مِنْكُمْ مَرِيضًا أَوْ عَلَى سَفَرٍ فَعِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَيَّامٍ أُخَرَ وَعَلَى الَّذِينَ يُطِيقُونَهُ فِدْيَةٌ طَعَامُ مِسْكِينٍ فَمَنْ تَطَوَّعَ خَيْرًا فَهُوَ خَيْرٌ لَهُ وَأَنْ تَصُومُوا خَيْرٌ لَكُمْ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ{ سورة البقرة (184)
So whoever of you is sick or on a journey, the same number of other days, and those who are able to do it must pay a ransom by feeding a poor person. So whoever volunteers good, it is better for him, And that you fast is better for you, if you only knew.” Surah Al-Baqarah (184)

5 - Excessive, unusual hardship
If it is difficult for him to fast because of an illness from which it is hoped he will be cured, or he was in a campaign and jihad, or he was afflicted with severe hunger or thirst, and he feared harm for himself, and his ruling is that it is permissible to break the fast and that it is necessary to make it up.
6 Rescue a respected person
It is the sanctity of legitimacy as a supervisor of destruction. If the salvation of this soul or part of it is cut off from the saving a soul, He may break his fast, as if he is required to save the soul of someone who has no other savior, and he must make up after that.
What are the invalidation of fasting?
There are things that invalidate the fast, and you should pay attention to them, including the following:
Intentionally eating or drinking
Of course: intentionally eating or drinking invalidates the fast, and everything that takes the place of eating and drinking has the same ruling and invalidates the fast, such as: taking fluids intravenously; Because it nourishes the body like eating and drinking.
2- Intercourse or masturbation
Intercourse during the fasting period invalidates it during the day and during the hours of fasting, however, this does not mean leaving it, rather it is permissible to have sexual intercourse after breaking the fast at night, provided that they perform ablution after it, Likewise, masturbation is considered one of the things that invalidate the fast, and it is obligatory to break the fast if that happens.

The disputed of the in validators
The asthma inhalers
Which contain medical preparations and oxygen, as the content of the spray reaches the lungs, not the stomach.
The enema
Suppositories or ointments
used to relieve hemorrhoid pain
The anesthesia
Through the nose, such as inhaling an anesthetic.
Some injections such as penicillin or insulin
Inserting something into the stomach other than through the mouth
Like ear and nose drops, the schools differed in that, some said that it invalidates the fast, while others said: it does not invalidate the fast.
The cupping
It is the removal of blood through the skin rather than through the veins, and is an alternative treatment that many undergo until now, there is no conclusive evidence that cupping invalidates the fast, except that it is widespread, and that is why it is best to avoid it during fasting times.
The teeth medicine
The controversy is still based on the blood resulting from dental treatment, as some believe that it invalidates the fast, while others believe that it does not break the fast.
In the case of dental treatment and bleeding, be sure not to swallow what is in the mouth.
Brushing the teeth with toothpaste or rinsing the mouth is not considered to invalidate the fast. This may cause fasting in the case of intentional ingestion of the oral cavity must do penance
The Pregnant and breastfeeding provisions
It is not permissible for a pregnant woman to make up for the missed fasts by atonement for sin only, because that is as if the sick person is a transient disease and it disappears, this kind of excuse must be compensated for by fasting, and the penance is not the same. Like a man who underwent surgery during the day in Ramadan, so he broke his fast for a week and God healed him, so he must make up what he owes for his fast after the end of Ramadan.
The Provisions of the patient with chronic disease
He does not hope for his recovery, that is, that it will continue with him for years or all his life, so he must pay the expiation for fasting, and he must do so. He is not allowed to fast. If the doctor advises him to break the fast, contrary to the doctor's instructions, then he is sinning according to Sharia
The ruling on taking atonement for fasting
Al-Azhar International Center for Electronic Fatwa said that whoever breaks the fast in Ramadan with a legitimate excuse must make up the fasts of these days, noting that it is obligatory to make up the days of Ramadan with an excuse for those who break the fast, , when the ability to do so is achieved. Fasting or fidyah is better if the state of health, for those who did not fast during the days of Ramadan, they allow the missed fasts, so the ransom is not sufficient
