Question Summary:
Does my sister make up her fasts if she has paid fidya?

Question Detail:

Dear sir/madam: My sister who is residing in USA is having some health problems and needs to take medicines approximately every six hours. She has arranged kaffara against her fasting in the month of Ramadan. She is feeding one man in the month of Ramadan who is fasting.  Now my question is this that, should she fast the same number of days after she overcomes her health hazards [which will take few more weeks  which means that month of Ramadan will end by that time] though she has arranged kaffara? During Ramadan she is a regular salati and fasts every year regularly.
Regards and Thanks

Answer :

Answer:
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
Your sister does not have to give fidya, rather she should make the fasts up when she overcomes these health hazards.[1]
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best

Darul Iftaa Building project

We make Du’aa you are well. The Darul Iftaa was established in the year 2011. The fundamental objective of the Darul Iftaa is to train Ulama from various parts of the world to become Muftis. In this world of scientific calculations and technological advancements, economic confusion and political disarray, a Mufti is trained to understand and analyze current situations and provide leadership for the Ummah. There is a vacuum  of competent Muftis in various parts of the world. The Ummah lacks leadership. There are currently twelve students who are studying at the Darul Iftaa. They are from United States of America, United Kingdom, Mozambique, Jamaica, Zambia, Canada and South Africa. There are many Ulama from many parts of the world who have applied to study the Iftaa course. They could not be accommodated due to lack of adequate facilities. The Darul Iftaa has therefore embarked on an expansion project.

The Darul Iftaa requests your generous contributions for the expansion project. The building project has already begun and is expected to be completed within the next three months. This is indeed a great opportunity for you to earn Sawab e Jariyah in the Aakhirah. This is a tree with many branches bearing sweet fruits for your Aakhirah. Insha’Allah. The Darul Iftaa banking details are as follows:

Bank:              FNB Bank
Account#:     62347912778
Branch:           221126
 

(The Darul Iftaa is registered and has the following PBO exemption number: 930039227 – 3 May 2012)

JazakAllah.
