Question
How much fidyah is it for Namaaz and Ramadhaan Fasts? What is the correct word: fidyah or kaffaarah?
Answer
For Qadha Namaaz and Qadha Roza, the term Fidyah is used. If it is a 60 day Kaffaarah Roza, then the term Kaffaarah will be used. If it is the penalty for a violated oath, it will be Kaffaarah.
The Fidyah for a Qadha Namaaz is the same amount as the Fitrah amount which is about R15 ($2). That is for one day's Qadha it will be R90. This includes the Witr Namaaz. The same applies for each Qadha Roza.
