It is necessary to stop while he hears the call to prayer and refrain from eating or drinking if the Adhan Announcer calls the dawn precisely at the real time of Adhan.

As long as the person is careful not to swallow the blood, which is coming out of the mouth without their consent, bleeding that gets on the teeth has no effect on them. It is not considered to be breaking the fast in this instance, so the person who tests the blood is not required to make up his fasting day. Similar to the above, if a person has nosebleeds and is aware that he does not swallow it, he is under no obligation to make up that fasting day. Sheikh Muhammad bin Uthaymeen.

With the exception of incense, which should not be intentionally inhaled because the smoke has an object that can reach the stomach, using it during the day during Ramadan is acceptable. Sheikh Muhammad Bin Uthaymeen.

Yes, a person who is fasting may kiss and touch his wife while fasting, whether it is during Ramadan or not; however, if he becomes pregnant as a result, his fast is void. He does not need to stop fasting because his fast has been broken. However, if his fast was required, he must make up that day; however, if it was voluntary, he need not. Sheikh Muhammad bin Uthaymeen.
