No, you cannot eat jelly when fasting, according to some guidelines for clear fluid diets.
Here's why:
- Jelly is not a clear fluid. Clear fluid diets often restrict foods to those that are liquid at room temperature and are easily digestible.
- Excluded from clear fluid diets: According to the provided reference, jelly is specifically excluded from clear fluid diets. Other excluded items include milk.
| Allowed Clear Fluids | Disallowed Foods (Including Jelly) |
|---|---|
| Water | Jelly |
| Fruit juice (no pulp) | Milk |
| Clear cordial | |
| Black tea/coffee |
Therefore, if your fast requires clear fluids, jelly is not permitted.
