English translation

2375. It was reported that Anas said: "We would not avoid cupping for the fasting person except if it caused a difficult hardship." (Sahih)

Arabic text

2375 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْمُغِيرَةِ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ أَنَسٌ: «مَا كُنَّا نَدَعُ الْحِجَامَةَ لِلصَّائِمِ، إِلَّا كَرَاهِيَةَ الْجَهْدِ»

Commentary

The Hadīth means that cupping, as a rule, does not break the fast. The only consideration is that it might entail weakness to the fasting person. If no such fear exists, then it is permissible.
