Fidyah for a Day: If you were unable to fast for one day due to sickness or old age, you must feed a person for each day missed
This Ramadan
Feed The Needy With Fidyah & Kaffarah
Who Must Pay The Fidyah
Fidyah is required when a person cannot fast for valid reasons and is unable to make up the missed fasts later. The donation provides food to someone in need in place of each missed fast.
The Fidyah amount is $8 per missed fast or $240 for the full month (30 fasts), helping ensure daily meals for those less fortunate.
Who Must Pay The Kaffarah
Kaffarah is required when a person deliberately breaks a fast and is unable to fast for 60 consecutive days as atonement. In this case, they must feed 60 people in need, ensuring their missed fast benefits the less fortunate.
The Kaffarah amount is $480, which provides meals for 60 people and fulfills this obligation.

[The Noble Qur’an, 65:3]
Fidyah is required for individuals who are unable to fast due to old age, chronic illness, or a long-term condition and cannot make up the missed fasts later.
The required amount for Fidyah is $8 per missed fast or $240 for the entire month. This donation provides food for those in need.
Fidyah serves as compensation for missed fasts, ensuring that while one cannot fulfill their obligation to fast, they still contribute to feeding the less fortunate.
The donation provides two meals per missed fast to individuals struggling with food insecurity, helping sustain them during Ramadan and beyond.
Kaffarah is required when someone intentionally breaks a fast without a valid reason and cannot fast for 60 consecutive days as compensation.
The required amount for Kaffarah is $480, which covers feeding 60 people in need as an alternative to fasting for 60 consecutive days.
Kaffarah acts as an atonement for deliberately breaking a fast, offering a way to seek forgiveness while supporting those facing hunger.
This donation ensures that 60 people in need receive nourishing meals, providing essential support to vulnerable communities
