باب فِيمَنْ مَاتَ وَعَلَيْهِ صِيَامٌ

English narration

Narrated by عائشة بنت أبي بكر الصديق

Narrated Aishah: The Prophet ﷺ as saying: If anyone dies when some fast is due from him (i. e. which he could not keep) his heir must fast on his behalf. Abu Dawud said: This applies to the fast which a man vows ; and this is the opinion of Ahmad bin Hanbal.

مَنْ مَاتَ وَعَلَيْهِ صِيَامٌ صَامَ عَنْهُ وَلِيُّهُ

" . قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد : هَذَا فِي النَّذْرِ ، وَهُوَ قَوْلُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ حَنْبَلٍ .
