Fasting

[Hasibah]

Asalaam Aluakim;
Sadly. I didnt fast the past 3 years. I have had a low Imam. My non Muslim mom passed away and just threw everything in disarray. My question is can I make up the days from this past Ramadan? Or is it too late?

[alkathiri]

if a person delays making up missed fasts until the next Ramadaan because of an excuse such as ongoing illness, travel, pregnancy or breastfeeding, then he or she only has to make up the fasts, but if there was no excuse, then the one who delayed it has to repent and seek forgiveness, and – according to the majority of scholars – he has to offer a fidyah by feeding one poor person for each day, as well as making up the fasts. We stated that the correct view is that the fidyah is not required, but if one does that in order to be on the safe side, that is good.

:salam2: Sister,

You writing this thread and asking this question is in sha Allah a sign of sincere repentance. May Allah SWT accept it.

The Standing Committee for Issuing Fatwas was asked: I went to the United States to study and I spent five years there, during which I did not pray or fast. Allaah has guided me and I have become righteous, praise be to Allaah. How can I make up these prayers and fasts?

They replied:

If the situation is as you describe, and you have repented and begun to follow the way of guidance, you do not have to make up the prayers and fasts that you deliberately did not do, because not praying is major kufr and apostasy from Islam, even if the one who does not pray does not deny that it is obligatory. This is according to the more sound of the two scholarly opinions. If the apostate becomes Muslim again, he is not enjoined to make up the prayers and fasts that he missed during his apostasy, because the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:

“Islam erases that which came before it, and repentance erases that which came before it.”

But in the future you have to pray regularly in congregation and on time with the Muslims in the mosque, and observe the Ramadaan fast. It is also prescribed for you to do a great deal of good deeds and naafil acts of worship such as prayer, fasting, upholding ties of kinship, giving charity and other good deeds, as much as you can, because Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“And verily, I am indeed forgiving to him who repents, believes (in My Oneness, and associates none in worship with Me) and does righteous good deeds, and then remains constant in doing them (till his death)”

[Ta-Ha 20:82]

We ask Allaah to make us and you steadfast in adhering to the truth and following the right path.

About praying in congregation in the mosque, this is for men.
