Fidya

Definition of Fidya

Fidya merupakan bayaran denda yang dikenakan pada seseorang yang tidak dapat mengganti puasanya di bulan Ramadan pada sesuatu tahun sehinggalah tibanya bulan Ramadan tahun berikutnya.

The ruling on paying fidya is OBLIGATORY. Paying fidya does not mean that a person no longer needs to make up their missed fasts, as those fasts must still be replaced according to the number of days that were missed.

 

The amount of fidya is calculated based on the current price of rice (the staple food of the local population), which is one cupak. This amount varies according to the price set by the authorities in a particular place. The rice must be given as food to the poor and needy, and not in the form of cash, clothing, or other items.
