Compensation for missed Salaah after a person’s demise
Question
Q. As salaam mu Alaikum What happens if the deceased has quadha salaah and does not have money in the estate to pay fidyah.?
Answer
The heirs should do Istighfar (seek forgiveness) on his behalf. If the heirs wish to give any charity on his behalf, they may do so as a voluntary gesture.
And Allah Knows Best
