A sick man: Is it sufficient for him to pay the value of feeding a fasting person using charity association cards?

Question : He was asked (may Allah preserve him) about a sick man whose recovery is not expected: Is it sufficient for him to pay the value of feeding a fasting person according to the cards distributed by charitable associations?

Answer : I do not think it is sufficient for him. First, because what he pays may be eaten or it may not be eaten; perhaps the card is placed to be eaten, but no one eats it. And the fidyah (ransom payment) must be known to have reached the hand of its rightful recipient. Yes, if the one who comes to... Yes. Also, perhaps the same poor person eats this extra portion repeatedly, is that not so? Perhaps the one you give it to eats it today, and the next day the same man eats it, and the third day likewise. So did you give to poor people or to one poor person? To one poor person. For this reason, we do not think it is sufficient.
