Peace be upon you. Peace. Good evening, dear Sheikh. Sheikh, regarding chewing gum, if it has no taste and does not break apart, does it break the fast, Sheikh?

As long as it is Ibn 'Areeq. How, Sheikh? As long as it is Ibn 'Areeq.

O son of 'Areeq. So, any gum at all breaks the fast. Yes. Or is that wrong? Yes.

If he spits out the saliva, meaning people use chewing gum to spit out saliva. He spits it out, even.

Even if the gum has no taste, even if it has no taste.

Thursday, the thirteenth of Ramadan, year one thousand four hundred and nineteen Hijri.
