When fidya applies
- For fasts: only someone very old and weak, or chronically ill with no hope of recovery, who can never make up the fasts, pays one fitrana per fast. Someone who is temporarily ill, pregnant, nursing or travelling makes the fasts up later instead. (Banuri Town Darul Ifta)
- For a deceased person’s prayers (Hanafi): fidya is paid for each missed prayer including witr — six per day — if the deceased left a will (wasiyyat) for it, from up to one-third of the estate; heirs may also pay it voluntarily. (Banuri Town Darul Ifta)
- Shia (Sistani): fidya for a fast is one mudd — about 750 g — of food such as wheat or rice, given to a poor person. (sistani.org)
