Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a woman is required to feed people on behalf of fasting she cannot perform due to illness, is the husband required to pay it if she is not financially capable?
Answer:
No, no, he is not required to. It remains in her liability; it remains a debt in her liability. If the husband wishes to donate to her and help her, may Allah reward him with good, but that he is required to do so, no. Yes.
