Question
I want to pay the Kaffaarah for the rozas (fasts) of my deceased mother. How should it be paid?
Answer
Kaffaarah is valid only if the deceased person had made a wasiyyat to the effect. If the deceased had not made wasiyyat, then paying Kaffaarah is not obligatory of the heirs, and nothing from the assets may be taken for this purpose. The heirs may give as Sadqah whatever amount they wish and supplicate to Allah Ta'ala to forgive the deceased.
