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

I faced a lot of financial hardship during this period and also borrowed money from people.
