Chapter on One Who Becomes Muslim in Month of Ramadan, and the Ruling of One Who Reaches Puberty in It, and One Who Dies after Having Fasted Part of It or Not Having Fasted Anything from It

Al-Husayn ibn Said, from al-Qasim ibn Muhammad, from Ali, from Abu Basir, from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him: Imam عليه السلام said: “If a man is sick from (month of) Ramadan to (month of) Ramadan, then recovers, then upon him for each day that he broke the fast is only a redemption: food, and it is a mudd for each needy person.” Imam عليه السلام said: “And likewise also in the expiation of an oath and the expiation of zihar, a ‘mudd’, a ‘mudd’ (for each). And if he recovers between the two (months of) Ramadans, then upon him is only that he make up the fast. But if he is negligent regarding it while he has recovered, then upon him are charity and fasting together, for each day a mudd, when he finishes that (month of) Ramadan.”
