Understanding Kaffarah

Kaffarah Rate in Pakistan
According to the provided information:
- The current rate for Kaffarah is PKR 5 per missed fast.
Calculating Kaffarah
- For each missed fast, you need to pay PKR 5.
- If you missed all the fasts of Ramadan (assuming 30 fasts), you would need to pay 30 * PKR 5 = PKR 150.
Missed Fasts | Kaffarah Amount (PKR) |
---|---|
1 | 5 |
5 | 25 |
10 | 50 |
15 | 75 |
20 | 100 |
30 | 150 |
Example
Let’s say someone missed 7 fasts. They would calculate their Kaffarah as follows:
7 missed fasts * PKR 5/fast = PKR 35
Therefore, they would need to pay PKR 35 as kaffarah.
Important Considerations
- This rate is specifically for providing meals to the needy.
- The intention behind Kaffarah is to compensate for missed religious duties.
