Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah’s peace, mercy, and blessings be upon you. After that, is it permissible to give the fidyah (ransom payment) owed by one who cannot fast Ramadan due to old age and frailty to one person at once at the end of the month?
Answer:
Yes, there is nothing wrong with that. As for the fidyah for the days of Ramadan, you may distribute it among several poor people, or you may combine it for one poor person, and you may pay it in installments, or you may pay it in one lump sum. Yes.
