Understanding Fidyah
Fidyah is a religious donation made in Islam to compensate for missed fasts during Ramadan. It is intended for individuals who are unable to fast due to valid long-term reasons, where there is no hope of making up the fasts later.
Who is Obliged?
- Elderly individuals who find fasting extremely difficult.
- People with chronic illnesses where fasting could worsen condition.
- Individuals with permanent disabilities.
Majority of Scholars
The majority of scholars (Hanafi, Shafi’i, Hanbali) agree that Fidyah is a required compensation for those permanently unable to fast. The amount is typically equivalent to feeding one needy person for each day of missed fast.
Egyptian Dar al-Ifta
Dar al-Ifta aligns with the majority view, emphasizing that the core purpose is to provide sustenance to the poor. They specify the amount should be sufficient for an average meal for one person.
