Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : Peace be upon you, peace and the mercy of Allah. The question is: Yes, my grandmother, my mother’s mother, was under the care of her daughter for twenty-five years. She did not accept what was beyond her capacity regarding fasting due to ignorance. They would make up the prayers but not the fasts. She would experience irregular bleeding in some years, so she would not make up the fasts and would not fast for most of Ramadan. What is the ruling on the Friday prayer?
Answer : But this is about the grandmother? No, they accepted the prayers; they were in the state of accepting the prayers, but they did not accept the fasts. She owes nothing, and we are not required to do anything, and we are not required to do anything. We have answered you.
