Question:
May Allah reward you. This sister says to me: I have a paralyzed sister who also has a speech impediment, and I want to fast and give charity on her behalf. What will reach her from these deeds?
Answer:
One does not fast on behalf of another, and fasting does not admit of substitution. As for charity, there is nothing wrong with it. So, give charity on her behalf? Yes.
