Question
I am a Hanafi while my wife is a Shaafi'. If I pay her Fitrah, shall it be according to the Hanafi or Shaafi' calculation?
Answer
Fitrah is Waajib on your wife. Paying her Fitrah is not Waajib on you just as her Salaat is not Waajib on you. However, if you wish to pay her Fitrah you may do so with her knowledge and consent, and the amount must be the Shaafi' amount.
