How much saliva for wudu during fasting? Swallow some?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
If we are fasting and we do wudu, after we do kuli, you say in one of your fataawa to spit once and twice, I spit more than this, but after very little time, sometimes I swallow and I feel as if water went down my throat, yet I am not absolutely sure, since I spit, should I disregard this or should I make qaza for this fast?

Answer

(Fatwa: 208/208=L)

In the abovementioned case, you do not have to make up (re-perform) the missed sawm (fast):

اذا بقی بعد المضمضۃ ماء فابتلعہ بالبزاق لم یفطر لتعذر الاحتراز (الشامی: 3/367، ط زکریا دیوبند)
