The ruling on preventing a patient with kidney failure from fasting
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
'Abd al-Rahman from al-Bahah, please, 'Abd al-Rahman. Peace be upon you. [Unintelligible]. And upon you be peace. How are you, my brother? May Allah welcome you. My brother, my aunt has kidney failure. The doctor says she must not fast.
The Shaykh:
If the doctor tells her not to fast, not to fast, if she is able to make up the fasts in the future, she makes them up; and if she is not able, she feeds one poor person for every day. Praise be to Allah. Yes.
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. Is there anything else?
The Shaykh:
Thank you, thank you. May Allah bless you.
