Title: Missed Fasts... Question: Last year I missed all of my fasts during Ramadan and was not able to even fast a single day, because I was 7 months' pregnant and weak, therefore, I could not keep my fasts, this year now I feed my daughter because she just takes milk and nothing else, therefore I feed her after every hour. Kind sir, please tell me what should I do in this situation. please give me a detailed answer. Thank you. Kulsoom Jamal Answer: If a person, due to any reason relating to his/her health [1] is unable to fast during the month of Ramadan, then the Qur'an has expressly allowed him/her to complete the number of missed fasts during other days. In view of the allowance given by the Qur'an, I would suggest that you may, if required, defer completing the number of your fasts till the time that you are in a position to do so. Furthermore, if required, you may, as in the previous year, miss your fasts during the coming Ramadan as well. Please let me know if any further clarification is required.
