Intention in Qadha Fasts
Reading Time: < 1 minute
- When keeping your Qadha fasts it is not necessary to specify the day and date.
- Saying, “I am keeping the Qadha Fast of so-and-so date,” is not required.
- It suffices to fast the number of days of Qadha.
- However, if there are Qadha fasts for two different Ramadhaans, then it is necessary to specify the year.
- For example, one should make Niyyat in this manner: “I am keeping my Qadha Fast of last year”, or “…the year 1446 AH”.
