Fasting and Hajj on behalf of a deceased woman
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: My aunt passed away in the middle of Ramadan last year, and she did not complete the month. Also, her children want to fast on her behalf. She also did not perform Hajj. Do they perform Hajj and fast on her behalf?
Answer:
As for fasting, no, except for the days that passed while she was ill and had her mind, but did not fast. They must either feed a poor person for each day on her behalf, or fast the number of days on her behalf. As for the days before she died, she owes nothing for them, because she did not reach them. As for Hajj, if it was not the Hajj of Islam, they perform the Hajj of Islam on her behalf. If it was the Hajj of Islam and they want to perform a voluntary Hajj for her, there is no harm in that. This is a good thing, and it benefits her if Allah accepts it. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
