The answer

Previously, the statements of the jurists regarding the invalidation of fasting by the entry of water into the anus were explained. The fast is invalidated according to the majority of scholars. However, the view that the fast is not invalidated by the entry of anything into the body cavity through the anus is a strong opinion with valid evidence. The questioner is not blameworthy for adopting this view, especially in the presence of illness.
