Q:
My wife suffers from physical pain. She could not (Part No. 9; Page No. 118) perform Sawm (Fast) of the previous Ramadan. And she will not be able to perform Sawm of the following Ramadan.
Thus, we ask you to give us your legal opinion concerning how she should make up for missed days of Sawm and the Kaffarah (expiation) she should offer. May Allah bless you.
A:
If your wife is expected to recover, she should make up for Sawm for the days on which she broke it. She should do this after she recovers. If she is not expected to recover in the future, she should feed a Miskin (needy) person for each day on which she broke her Sawm an amount of 1.5 kg of staple food of your country. This compensates for performing Sawm, as this Fatwa was reported from a group of the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) of the Prophet (peace be upon him).May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
