Bulimia & Fasting

If one is bulimic and binges but they purges the food up would that still be considering fasting since the food was not digested?

Re: Bulimia & Fasting

no- purging might not get rid of all the food...

Re: Bulimia & Fasting

It cannot be called fasting as it is meant in Islam. There is a tiny little detail of "niyath" involved which specifically says that "my fast is for allah"...I dont think your binge prone person will qualify.
