Fidya for missed salaah of the deceased
Question
My mother passed away. How much fidya must we pay to the poor and needy the namaazes which she missed while she was alive?
Answer
The amount of sadaqatul fitr should be given for each missed Salaah.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

How do I make up missed salaah (qadha)?
“Performing Qadha salaah in one's home or in the musjid is permissible. However, after the time of fajr enters and after performing your asr salaah, if you wish to perform Qadha salaah, then perform it in your home.”
