The amount of Qadha Salaat of the deceased is unknown.

Question

The amount of Qadha Salaat of the deceased is unknown. How should it be calculated for paying Fidyah?

Answer

Firstly, if the deceased had not made wasiyyat for paying the Kaffaarah for his missed Salaat, then it will not be Waajib for the heirs to pay. Nevertheless, it will be meritorious if they do. In the event of there being no wasiyyat, they may give in Sadqah any amount they desire and make dua for the maghfirat of the deceased. In the absence of wasiyyat there is no need for exact calculation.
