Fasting

I have a chronic illness (lupus). I’ve been diagnosed from 9. I’m now 17. I didn’t know the signs of reaching puberty and only thought I reached it from 13, so I didn’t pay fidya before that. With my illness, there is no cure, I take daily medication, sometimes less or more, but I cannot stop the medication. I can become in remission, when I feel healthy I fast, and sick I don’t. Can I pay fidya?

ANSWER: If there are days you can fast, you must make up the missed fasts without paying any fidya. Feeding is only for those who are chronically ill and can’t make these days up.

shaykh i think there is a hadith which the prophet told us that there is no prayer at the time of food (paraphrased) but it is also fard to go to the masjid, so during ramadan what is the ruling on missing maghreb in congregation to eat food? note: they used to do iftar in the masjid but cuz of covid they didnt do it this year also my house is not very close to the masjid.

Sheikh the sins in ramadan when fasting is it more than when we are not fasting such as after dawn? Because people think here that only when fasting one should refrain cuz it has more sinful stuff. So is the sin the same as throughout ramadan during one is fasting and even after fasting is done such as after iftaar. Thanks.

My father is sick and will likely not be able to make up fasts. How to give food instead, does it have to be 1and half kilograms, do we give a one-time meal or groceries?

ANSWER: If it’s a normal illness that he would recover from eventually then it’s not permissible to pay fidya. He must make up those days when he is cured. But if it’s a chronic illness then he should give the fidya.
