Summary
According to the Hanafi texts, the fast of a man or woman who pushes back hemorrhoids with a finger while relieving themselves is invalidated. Sheikh Hasanain Makhluf adds that such a person may break the fast and must make it up after recovery. However, al-Baghawi, al-Hawarizmi and al-Azraie held that the fast is not invalidated, and this answer favours their view because the person is otherwise healthy.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Walaupun begitu, al-Baghawi dan al-Hawarizmi berpendapat, tidak batal puasa dan inilah yang dii'timadkan oleh al-Azraie.
