Today I kept fast but my tonsil pain started therefore needed to gargle. Can I gargle during fasting?
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
(Fatwa: 31/775/SN=8/1439)
You should bear a little pain but should not gargle in the state of fasting as in case water enters down the throat while gargling then your fast will be annulled.
Allah knows Best!
