Allah permits a patient who cannot fast to break fast during Ramadan

A: Allah (Exalted be He) has permitted those who are ill and unable to fast to break fast in Ramadan. You need not do anything regarding the days in which you break your fast except making up for them. You should make up for these seven days when you are able. The same applies to the days of fast missed from the second Ramadan of 1416 A.H. This is based on the general ruling in the Saying of Allah: ...and whoever is ill or on a journey, the same number [of days which one did not observe Saum (fasts) must be made up] from other days. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
