Study Notes
Exempt Individuals from Ramadan Fast
- Individuals exempt from fasting include the elderly, children, the sick, pregnant or breastfeeding women, and travelers.
Obligation for Missed Fasts Without Valid Reason
- Those who miss fasting during Ramadan without a valid reason are required to make up the missed days later, typically before the next Ramadan.
Obligation for Postponing Makeup Fast
- If someone postpones making up missed fasts beyond the following Ramadan without sufficient reason, they must fast for each missed day and perform expiation (fidya) in the form of feeding the poor.
Obligation for Pregnant or Breastfeeding Women for Their Children
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women who avoid fasting for their children's sake should make up the missed fasts later, but they may also need to provide expiation for each day missed, depending on the severity of the situation.
Obligation for a Person Who Dies Before Making Up Fasts
- If a person dies before making up missed fasts, they are not held accountable for those missed days, as it is understood that they cannot fulfill the obligation after death.
Obligation for Travelers Without Difficulty
- A traveler who does not experience any difficulty during the journey must observe the fast during Ramadan as they are not considered legitimately exempt.
Obligation for Pregnant or Breastfeeding Women for Themselves
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women who avoid fasting for their own health or comfort must make up the missed days later and may need to provide expiation if they deemed fasting was manageable.
Obligation for Missing Fasts with Valid Reason
