THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Arbaà, 21st day of Rajab, 1440, (Wednesday, 27th March, 2019). RAMADAN APPROACHING. HAVE YOU PAID YOUR LAST OR PREVIOUS YEARS MISSED RAMADAN FASTING? Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem. Let's note that it is not permissible as a Muslim to delay your missed days of fasting from previous Ramadan till this time unless with legitimate permissible reasons which every Muslim must learn about. ALLAH will not accept any mistakes we do due to lack of knowledge whilst we have means to seek the knowledge. We must learn or ask the learned brothers and sisters before we act in Islam, don't act ignorantly especially when it comes to acts of worship like Fasting. First of all, be aware that it is NOT permissible to feed the poor days we couldn't fast in Ramadan except those who cannot fast permanently due to old age or perminent illness such as stomach cancer etc which professional doctors has confirmed you cannot fast permanently. If there is any hope of fasting in the near future then feeding the poor is not necessary and even if you feed the poor each day you must still pay for your missed days of fasting as soon as you are well to fast. I'm only summarizing base on Quran, Sunnah and Consensus of Scholars teachings so you can do your research for more. For those who fall under the category of not been able to fast permanently, then just consider good amount of food or money that can be sufficient for full day meal and give it out to the poor on daily basis or calculate for the 29/30 days fasting and give its equivalent in food or cash to the poor person(s). For those who missed due to pregnancy or breastfeeding, you should strive to fast back your previous missed days before the next Ramadan if not then you can still fast after the coming Ramadan. You can ask any questions please. . May ALLAH keep guiding us and grant us the opportunity to be Part of the coming blessed Ramadan. Aameen.
