The ruling on making up the fast of Ramadan on behalf of a deceased sick person
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, my father passed away and he had fasted half of the blessed month of Ramadan. He was suffering from an illness that did not abate, and he died after Ramadan because of this illness. Now, should the strong ones seek forgiveness for him, or is it forbidden for the questioners?
Answer:
He owes nothing, neither fasting nor feeding the poor, because as long as he broke his fast due to illness and it continued with him until he died, he owes nothing. And you do not have to make up the fasts or feed anyone.
