What is reported about cupping while fasting
Hadith 608
حَدَّثَنِي حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى ، عَنْ مَالِك ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ ، " أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَحْتَجِمُ وَهُوَ صَائِمٌ ، قَالَ : ثُمَّ تَرَكَ ذَلِكَ بَعْدُ فَكَانَ إِذَا صَامَ لَمْ يَحْتَجِمْ حَتَّى يُفْطِرَ "
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he used to get cupped while fasting, then he abandoned it, so when he was fasting he would not get cupped until he broke his fast.
Hadith 609
وَحَدَّثَنِي ، عَنْ وَحَدَّثَنِي ، عَنْ مَالِك ، عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، أَنَّ سَعْدَ بْنَ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ ، وَعَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ " كَانَا يَحْتَجِمَانِ وَهُمَا صَائِمَانِ "
It is narrated from Ibn Shihab that Sayyiduna Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas (may Allah be pleased with him) and Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) used to get cupped while fasting.
Hadith 610
وَحَدَّثَنِي ، عَنْ مَالِك , عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ , عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، " أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَحْتَجِمُ وَهُوَ صَائِمٌ ثُمَّ لَا يُفْطِرُ ، قَالَ : وَمَا رَأَيْتُهُ احْتَجَمَ قَطُّ إِلَّا وَهُوَ صَائِمٌ "
Hazrat Urwah bin Zubair used to have cupping done while fasting, and then he would not break his fast. Hisham said: I have never seen Hazrat Urwah having cupping done except that he was fasting.
Hadith 610B
قَالَ مَالِك : لَا تُكْرَهُ الْحِجَامَةُ لِلصَّائِمِ إِلَّا خَشْيَةً مِنْ أَنْ يَضْعُفَ ، وَلَوْلَا ذَلِكَ لَمْ تُكْرَهْ وَلَوْ أَنَّ رَجُلًا احْتَجَمَ فِي رَمَضَانَ ثُمَّ سَلِمَ مِنْ أَنْ يُفْطِرَ لَمْ أَرَ عَلَيْهِ شَيْئًا ، وَلَمْ آمُرْهُ بِالْقَضَاءِ لِذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ الَّذِي احْتَجَمَ فِيهِ ، لِأَنَّ الْحِجَامَةَ إِنَّمَا تُكْرَهُ لِلصَّائِمِ لِمَوْضِعِ التَّغْرِيرِ بِالصِّيَامِ ، فَمَنِ احْتَجَمَ وَسَلِمَ مِنْ أَنْ يُفْطِرَ حَتَّى يُمْسِيَ فَلَا أَرَى عَلَيْهِ شَيْئًا وَلَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ قَضَاءُ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: Cupping is not disliked for the fasting person except out of fear that he may become weak, and if there is no fear of weakness, then it is not disliked. So if a person has cupping done in Ramadan, and then manages to avoid breaking his fast, then nothing is required of him, nor is he obliged to make up that day, because cupping is disliked only when there is fear of breaking the fast. So if he has cupping done and avoids breaking his fast until evening comes, then nothing is required of him, nor is he obliged to make up that day.
