Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah’s peace, mercy, and blessings be upon you. I underwent a kidney transplant on 15/6/1422, and my doctors advised me not to fast for a period of one year. This year ends on 15/6/1423. What should I do? Do I

Answer:
Break your fast as the doctors have ordered, because you are ill. You break your fast. If you are able to make up the fasts later, after the end of the period they set for you, if you are able to make them up, you make them up. Otherwise, you feed one poor person for every day. And praise be to Allah. Yes.
