The Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI), quoted from AI Care, explains that blood donation when fasting is permissible and does not invalidate fasting. Ulama argue that the series of examinations carried out before blood donation such as blood sugar checks will not break the fast because no object is inserted into the body through an open cavity.

As is known, during fasting Muslims will refrain from eating and drinking. Therefore, usually the condition will weaken. Therefore, it is recommended not to donate blood during the day because at that time the energy reserves have run out due to various activities carried out all day.
