Reward Of Missing A Routine Deeds
Assalamoalaikum,
Just came across a clip of Mufti Tariq Masood in which he states “if someone has been fasting routinely during the life then he gets sick and unable to fast – Allah will still reward him as per a Hadith but didn’t give Hadith reference”.
Didn’t make sense to me as Quran in Surah Baqarah is stating differently:
And he who is ill or is on a journey should complete this count in other days. [This concession has been given because] God desires ease for you and does not want to be harsh with you. And [the permission given to travellers and the sick to feed the needy has been withdrawn] so that you can complete the number of fasts [and thus not be deprived of the blessings of fasting] and [for this purpose the month of Ramaḍān has been fixed] so that [in the form of the Qur’ān] the guidance God has bestowed to you, you glorify God and so that you are grateful to Him.
Can someone please provide insight into the context of Hadith mentioned by Mufti Sahab. Does the rule change for someone who is sick for life and cannot fast for the rest of his life?
JazakAllah

This is the reward of intention. God is generous. He compensate a person for a thing he is unable to do, otherwise he would do.
The verse you quoted is about the legal status of obligatory fasts.

JazakAllah for clarification.
Your answer – Is that principle based on Quranic teachings or Hadiths teachings?
Will highly appreciate if you can kindly share reference – Jazakallah.

Principles are enunciated in the Quran or derived or deducted from the Quran or the tradition of prophets, or they are universal truths. In this case, God’s mercy and generosity is an established fact. Mercy and generosity require that the people unable to perform a duty or a deed should be rewarded anyhow. Then we have many instances in Ahadith and the pervious books too, which confirm that God does compensate the people who have real good intentions to do a thing but are unable to perform it due to lack of resources.
