Fidya/Kaffara

Fidya

Where a person is unable to fast due to their ill health,  a payment is given in substitution.  Fidya is £4 per a day for each individual.

If fasting is not possible for the whole month of Ramadan, the total cost is £120

Kaffara

This is when a fasting person deliberately breaks their fast. They are then required to redo the fast and make a payment for the broken fast. If they are unable to do so, they should feed 60 poor people for every fast missed, as a rate of £4 per person.
