Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, a person is unable to fast because he is suffering from an illness that is not expected to end, so he fed one poor person for every day, and he continued doing so for years, then Allah cured him. Is he required to make up the fasts?
Answer:
No, if the excuse is removed, he fasts and does not feed. As for what he fed during the time of the excuse, it suffices, and praise be to Allah. Yes.
