18,411What Happens If You Don’t Make Up Missed Fasts before the Next Ramadan
If a person delays making up missed fasts until the next Ramadan because of an excuse such as ongoing illness, travel, pregnancy or breastfeeding, then he or she only has to make up the fasts. If there was no excuse, then the one who delayed it has to repent and seek forgiveness, and – according to the majority of scholars – he has to offer a Fidyah by feeding one poor person for each day, as well as making up the fasts. The correct view is that the Fidyah is not required, but if one does that in order to be on the safe side, that is good.32,716
