Making up the fast of a deceased father on behalf of his pregnant daughter
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good. She says her father passed away and he had four days of Ramadan left to make up. She wanted to fast them, but her husband prevented her. What do you advise her to do? May Allah preserve you.
Answer:
It is the same thing: if her father had broken his fast for four days of Ramadan, then recovered and was able to fast and make them up, but he did not make them up, there is no harm in her making them up on his behalf. However, if her father was unable to make them up and died while still unable to make them up, he owes nothing. In the first case, if he was able to make them up but did not, and he died after becoming able, she should fast these days on his behalf, but during a time when there is no hardship for her or for the child in her womb. She should delay it until the excuse is removed. Yes.
