Mishkat al-Masabih #1927
Fasting
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَعَن عَطاء قَالَ: إِن مضمض ثُمَّ أَفْرَغَ مَا فِي فِيهِ مِنَ الْمَاءِ لَا يضيره أَنْ يَزْدَرِدَ رِيقَهُ وَمَا بَقِيَ فِي فِيهِ وَلَا يَمْضُغُ الْعِلْكَ فَإِنِ ازْدَرَدَ رِيقَ الْعِلْكَ لَا أَقُولُ: إِنَّهُ يُفْطِرُ وَلَكِنْ يُنْهَى عَنْهُ. رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ فِي تَرْجَمَةِ بَابٍ
‘Ata’ said, “If one rinses his mouth and ejects the water in it, swallowing his saliva and anything that remains in it does him no harm; but one should not chew gum, for although I do not say that he breaks his fast he swallows the saliva produced by the gum, he is nevertheless prohibited from doing it.”
Bukhari transmitted it in a chapter heading.
