The believers are afflicted with calamities in the worldly life

A: If the reality is as you mentioned in the question that you cannot perform Sawm permanently, you should feed a Miskin an amount of 1.5 kg of staple food in your country. Allah (Exalted be He) says: And as for those who can fast with difficulty, (e.g. an old man), they have (a choice either to fast or) to feed a Miskîn (poor person) (for every day). You should not pay money instead of food, as it is not in accordance with the Nas (Islamic text from the Qur’an or the Sunnah). (Part No. 9; Page No. 115) May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
