Question:
A questioner from Yemen, whose name was not mentioned, says: My mother cannot fast and wants to feed people. How much should she feed? And is it permissible for her to give her charity to her brothers because they are in need?
Answer:
Yes, if she is unable to fast continuously and cannot fast Ramadan under any circumstances, she must feed one poor person for every day. And if her relatives are in need and she is not obligated to provide for them, they are the most deserving of her charity. Yes.
