I have heard that gargling and rinsing our nose during ablution invalidate our fast. Is this true?

Gargling and rinsing of the nose during ablution is sunnah (recommended). However, during fasting, it is not recommended to do them excessively. As long as it is done moderately, if you swallow a bit of water accidentally, your fast is still valid.
