Question:
My mother is advanced in age and cannot fast the month of Ramadan, so what is obligatory for us to do?
Answer:
If she is with you and has her mind and intellect, but cannot fast, then you feed on her behalf. For every day, you give half a sa' (a dry measure of about 3 kg), which is one and a half kilograms of food, to the poor. Yes.
