Fasting thirty days on behalf of a deceased relative to complete a full Ramadan in one day
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
It reached the Shaykh, may Allah preserve him, that a man had a full month of Ramadan fasting upon him, and thirty men from the people of the land fasted on his behalf,
The Shaykh:
To what extent?
The questioner:
If a person dies with a full month of Ramadan fasting upon him, and thirty men from his relatives fast on his behalf in one day, does that suffice according to the view that Ramadan is fasted on his behalf?
The Shaykh:
Yes, it suffices, because continuity is not required for Ramadan. It suffices if thirty men fast on his behalf in one day, because it is true that each one fasted a day, each one fasted a day, the total being thirty days. Praise be to Allah. Yes.
