Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is this statement from 'A'ishah? May Allah be pleased with her and her father. The context and the phrase are that 'A'ishah said: Why does a woman make up the fast but not the prayer?
Answer:
Yes. She makes up the fast because fasting does not repeat, so making it up is easy for her. As for the prayer, because it repeats, making it up is difficult due to the many prayers a menstruating woman misses. Therefore, Allah lightened the burden for her and did not make it obligatory for her to make up the missed prayers. Yes.
