Wa alaikum salam,

If she was hoping to get better and fast, there is nothing on her. But if she was chronically ill and doctors said she will not recover and couldn’t fast, they should feed one poor person for every day missed.

Assalamualykum my friend’s mother died a few months ago,she never fasted during her old age due to sickness sometimes or due to tiredness. Is there any Fidya or kafara to be done on behalf of the dead mother by the children. Kindly advise as my friend is very worried now for the missed fasting of her dead mother. Jazak Allahu khair

Asalamalaykum, my work involves doing manual labor outside in very hot weather conditions. I have to stay well hydrated or I could fall unconscious during work. How do I fast during ramadam and are there any concessions? Jazak Allah khair

Assalaamu alaikum if someone is making up years of missed obligatory fasting does he or she also need to pay the compensation for each fast missed? Also if they have not made up fasts that have gone for years does the compensation be accumulative? Because the compensation may be very big and unaffordable for some people.
