Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, may Allah bless you and reward you with good. As for the first question, the questioner asks: Does fasting count among the servant's deeds, from which retribution is taken for the rights of people?
Answer:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Does fasting count among the deeds of the servant, such that it is taken from him for the oppressed on the Day of Resurrection? For it is reported in the hadith that if there are injustices against people, then retribution is taken for the oppressed from his good deeds and his works. If his good deeds and works are exhausted and injustices remain against him, then he is taken from the bad deeds of the oppressed and they are cast upon him, and he is thrown into the Fire. So, is the retribution on the Day of Resurrection for the oppressed taken from righteous deeds and good deeds? Does fasting fall under this, and do the oppressed take it from him on the Day of Resurrection?
No, fasting does not enter into this. Allah, Mighty and Majestic, said in the Qudsi hadith:Sunan ad-Darimi 4:86
Fasting is stored by Allah for the one who fasts, and the oppressed do not take from it. Rather, it remains for the one who fasts; Allah stores it for him and rewards him with it a reward that no one knows except Allah. Fasting is for Me, and I will reward for it.

من مات وعليهNo, fasting does not enter into this. Allah, Mighty and Majestic, said in the Qudsi hadith:
Every deed of the son of Adam is multiplied for him, the good deed by ten times its like up to seven hundred times, except for fasting, for it is
كل عمل ابن ادم له الحسنه بعشر امثالها الى سبع مئه ضعف الا الصيام فانهand I will reward for it.
