The answer

The issue of breaking the fast by enema is a matter of scholarly disagreement, with the majority opinion being that it does break the fast. We advise refraining from this act during an obligatory fast and seeking other medications to treat the illness, as medicines are widely available. This is to avoid entering into scholarly dispute and rendering the fast invalid according to most scholars.
