Sniffing water into nostrils during Fasting

Question :

What are we to do when sniffing water in the nose for wudhu during fasting? What if it gets in our throat accidentally?

Answer :

Assalamu alaikum as for the question on the sniffing of water in the nose during ramadan the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam said : “to go to the limits regarding sniffing water except if you are fasting”. This shows that during fasting one should avoid putting as much water in the nostrils as he does outside of fasting as water can come into the theoat. However if it happens accidentily there is nothing upon him and his fast is correct.
