Q: My father died and did not make


552

A: If this girl was too weak to fast, she is subjected to the same ruling of a sick person. No blame is on the mother for forbidding her to fast in Ramadan. If this state of illness remained until the girl died, she does not have to make up for the missed days. However, if she was able to fast without much difficulty, then her mother is blamed for preventing her daughter from observing Sawm in Ramadan. It is permissible for her to make up for the missed days on her behalf. It is preferable that the mother takes on this responsibility as the one who initiated the problem.
