The cost to feed one person with one meal in Canada is $15.
At National Zakat Foundation aims to distribute all Fidya donations within the month of Ramadan to the poor and needy. Any funds that are not distributed within the month of Ramadan will be distributed to those in need in the weeks following Eid Al-Fitr
You must pay Fidya before you miss the fast, if you know you will not be able to make it up. If you will be missing the entire month of Ramadan, you will be paying Fidya for each day of Ramadan.
Fidya is not payable on fasts that are missed without a valid reason. Instead, a Kaffarah may be due upon you, which could include making up your fast, fasting for 60 days, or feeding 60 people for each missed fast. Please consult your local Imam or scholar for further guidance.
You are required to pay Fidya if you are unable to fast in Ramadan and are not able to make up the lost days afterwards due to prolonged illness, old age or other valid reasons.
