Rules for Ramadan
by Mufti Muhammad Shafi Usmani (r.a)
Translated by Moulana Muhammad ibn Moulana Haroon Abassoomar

 

The Qadā (Missed) Fasts

When one misses a fast due to a valid excuse, one should keep the qadā fast as soon as one is able to do so. There is no guarantee of life.

One has a choice of keeping the qadā consecutively or separately.

 If the traveller after returning home, or the sick person after recovering, do not live for so long whereby they could complete all the missed fasts, then they will be responsible for only the amount of days for which they lived thereafter.
