Charity in Islam > Fidya & Kaffarah
Fidya is paid on behalf of a person who is unable to fast due to medical conditions / pregnancy or any other valid reasons such as a prolonged illness. The current rate of Fidya is £7 per each fast that is missed to provide one person with two meals. If someone misses all the fasts of Ramadan, it would amount to £210. For those that miss any days of fasting during Ramadan - there are two types of missed fasts. For any days missed through necessity - Fidyah is payable. For any days missed unnecessarily - Kaffarah is payable. What is Fidyah? When someone cannot fast in Ramadan and can't make up the lost days afterwards (for example, due to ill health or pregnancy) they should then pay for someone else to be fed. How much is payable? The present rate is £7 for each day that is missed. (This should provide one person with two meals or two persons with one meal.) If someone misses all the fasts of Ramadan, it would amount to £210. |
