Issue 833: The Quadha of those fasts which once became void due to being intoxication must be observed, even if the intoxication has been due to the consumption of some medicine for a medical purpose; and if the person makes the intention for fasting and then gets intoxicated and remains fasting which being intoxicated until the intoxication evaporates, as an obligatory precaution, they must complete the fast of that day and observe the Quadha later.

Issue 837: If a person is not able to observe fasts due to some illness and they remain ill until the next Ramadhan, it will no more be obligatory for them to observe the Quadha of those fasts, but they will have to give 750 grams of food-stuff to the poor for each day.

Q838: What must a person do if they did not observe fasts in the first year they became mature owing to ignorance or not being able to fast? Will that suffice if the Quadha fasts are observed or will it also be necessary to make atonements? And what if it has not been due to negligence?

A: If they knew the issue and were able to fast but did not observe the fasts, they must atone for the abandonment of the fasts, but if they did not fast because of ignorance or not being able to fast, they have to observe the Quadha. If the observation of the Quadha fasts is postponed, they will be obliged to give 750 grams of food-stuff for each day.
