The ruling on making up the fast of Ramadan on behalf of a deceased sick person
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good. Abu Salim says: If my father had one month of Ramadan that he did not fast, and he passed away after Ramadan, and this deceased man had ten children who divided up the fasting, with each one fasting three days, is that sufficient for the month that he did not fast?
Answer:
No, that is not the case. The sick person in Ramadan owes nothing. If he is struck by an illness in Ramadan and is unable to fast, and he dies without being able to make up the fast, then he owes nothing. But what you did was an exercise of independent legal reasoning (ijtihad) on your part, and may Allah reward you with good. We hope that Allah will benefit him through it. Yes.
