The Case of a Person Who Passes Away Owing Fasting of the Month of Ramadan or Other Times
6ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ الْوَشَّاءِ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ الرِّضَا (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ إِذَا مَاتَ رَجُلٌ وَعَلَيْهِ صِيَامُ شَهْرَيْنِ مُتَتَابِعَيْنِ مِنْ عِلَّةٍ فَعَلَيْهِ أَنْ يَتَصَدَّقَ عَنِ الشَّهْرِ الأَوَّلِ وَيَقْضِيَ الشَّهْرَ الثَّانِيَ.
6. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from al-Hassan ibn Ali al-Washsha’ who has said the following: “I once heard al-Rida’ عليه السلام, say, ‘When a man dies, and he owes fast for two consecutive months for a certain reason, it is upon him to give charity for one month and complete Qada’ (compensatory fast) of the second month.”’
