Thread: Fasting for a dead person


Question: 
Is it permissible to fast for a husband who died in Ramadan? A man was sick at the end of his life and the month of Ramadan came, he only fast the first day and wasn't able to fast the rest of the month then he died, what can we do?
The answer:
If one died and didn't fast some days from the month of Ramadan, the Prophet (Blessing and peace of Allah be upon him) permits one of his relatives such as his wife, his son, his daughter or anyone from his relatives to fast those missed days for him, how? You can either pay ransom or fast those missed days for him. The Messenger of Allah (Blessing and peace of Allah be upon him) said:
"Whoever died and didn't fast some days, his relatives should fast for him."
Interposition:
Is it permissible to do the same in pilgrimage and prayers?
The answer:
One who died and didn't perform Hajj (pilgrimage), a relative can perform Hajj for him provided that he performed Hajj for himself first.
As we said before again and again about prayer, no one can perform prayer for another or for a dead person because everyone is responsible for himself in prayer.
We can perform fasting, Zakat and Hajj for a dead person but it is not allowed to perform prayer for him.
