He says: He died owing a fast, and he was unable to provide the sacrificial animal. What should be done? And is his Hajj valid?
Answer:
His Hajj is valid, and he must fast on his behalf. He fasts on his behalf in place of the sacrificial animal. A relative of his, his guardian, or one of his Muslim brothers fasts on his behalf. Yes.
