"Dream - Many Muslims question the law of fasting during Ramadan when they still have missed fasts. As is known, missed fasts during Ramadan can be experienced by someone due to various factors. For example, for women, it could be due to menstruation, postpartum bleeding, breastfeeding, or it could also be due to other factors such as illness or being of an advanced age. Now, in Islam, they are not obligated to perform the fast."

"That is by making up for the fast that has not been performed at another time after the month of Ramadan. In addition, for those who are unable to make up for the fast, they can give fidyah as a substitute for the fast that has not been performed. Fidyah can be given in the form of providing food to those who are entitled to receive food or in the form of payment to those in need."

"The minimum time for implementing fidyah is one day of fasting that has been missed, which must be compensated by feeding one poor person. The correct intention for fidyah is to intend to replace the missed fast by giving fidyah. The correct allocation of fidyah is to provide enough food for one poor person for one day. By properly carrying out the procedures for making up the fast and giving fidyah, it is hoped that the unpaid fasting debts can be fulfilled properly."

Rules for qadha fasting stipulate that the debt of fasting must be paid as soon as possible, without delay. The deadline for qadha fasting is before the arrival of the next month of Ramadan. To calculate the time to pay the debt of fasting, first, we need to know the number of fasts that need to be made up. After that, we can arrange a schedule to pay off the debt of fasting according to our ability and the circumstances that allow.

"The importance of understanding the rules of qadha fasting is to avoid negligence in fulfilling that obligation and to ensure that the debt of fasting is completed within the specified time. Guidelines for paying off fasting debts also include an understanding of the conditions for invalidating fasting. Thus, Muslims can avoid actions that invalidate fasting without a justified reason. Therefore, understanding the rules of qadha fasting is very important in carrying out religious obligations correctly and responsibly."

"Fasting that has not been redeemed is referred to as qadha fasting. Muslims are given time to replace qadha fasting until before the next year's Ramadan arrives. In addition to replacing the unfulfilled fast, Muslims also have the obligation to pay fidyah as a substitute for fasting that cannot be performed due to certain reasons, such as an illness that cannot be cured or pregnancy conditions. This fidyah is used to provide food to those in need during one day of fasting that cannot be carried out."

The consequences of not settling fasting debts until the next Ramadan are that one is prohibited from delaying this obligation without a valid reason. In addition, not settling fasting debts can impact the blessings of worship during the next Ramadan and create feelings of regret in fulfilling religious duties. Therefore, it is important to settle fasting debts promptly and pay fidyah if necessary, so that one can experience Ramadan with a peaceful heart and full of blessings.

The procedure for paying off missed fasting can be done with sincere intention and in accordance with religious teachings. First of all, a person needs to intend to replace the fast that was broken due to certain reasons, such as menstruation, postpartum bleeding, serious illness, or long-distance travel. This intention must be made sincerely and earnestly to fulfill the obligation of making up for the postponed Ramadan fast.

"Then, to make up for the fast that was broken due to menstruation, postpartum bleeding, or serious illness, one needs to perform the fast on other days after the month of Ramadan. This fast can be done consecutively or split into several days according to one's ability. Meanwhile, to make up for the fast that was postponed due to long travel, one can perform the fast after returning from the journey."
