What is the encouraged way to break one's fast with?
Dates and milk
Watermelon and water
Honey water and yoghurt
Green eggs and ham
Answer explanation
The tradition of breaking one's fast with dates and milk is rooted in the religious teachings of the Prophet Muhammad, who would encourage one to break his fast with dates and/or water. Dates are also known to be a quick source of energy and nutrients, and eating them after a long day of fasting can help the body's blood glucose levels quickly return to normal. Having dates with milk facilitates digestion, as it contains dietary fibers.

Answer explanation
Deliberately inserting something into an open orifice, or passageway would invalidate one's fast. Thus, eating, drinking, and smoking are prohibited. However, in instances where it is done out of necessity, such as for medical purposes, like injections do not invalidate it. Other instances would include deliberately causing oneself to vomit and menstruating women.
