John Shaqi

سَمِعْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) يَقُولُ الشَّيْخُ الْكَبِيرُ وَ الَّذِي بِهِ الْعُطَاشُ لَا حَرَجَ عَلَيْهِمَا أَنْ يُفْطِرَا فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ وَ يَتَصَدَّقُ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا فِي كُلِّ يَوْمٍ بِمُدٍّ مِنْ طَعَامٍ وَ لَا قَضَاءَ عَلَيْهِمَا فَإِنْ لَمْ يَقْدِرَا فَلَا شَيْ‏ءَ عَلَيْهِمَا .


Translation

Muhammad Bin yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Al Hassan Bin Mahboub, from Al A’ala Bin Razeyn, from Muhammad Bin Muslim who said, ‘I heard Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> saying: ‘The old man and the one who is with the thirst, there is no blame upon them if they break (not Fast) during the Month of Ramazan, and each one of them should give in charity during each day with a handful of food, and there is no making up for it upon them. But, if they are not able to, then there is nothing upon them both’.
