Fidyah for missed salaah

· 10 Rabiʻ II 1440 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

My father was sick for two months and then passed away. He offered some prayers during that time. Please tell me about fidiya for his prayers.

Answer

If he had made a bequest that fidyah should be paid for his missed namaaz then the fidyah will be paid from one third of his estate. The amount for each namaaz is the equivalent of sadaqatul fitr.

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.”
