“If you are sick and it is in the month of Ramadan, you are not compelled to fast. If you don’t fast, you have not sinned. If you get better, at the end of Ramadan, you can choose your time to pay the debt because it is recorded for you as a debt."The Director of Muslim Rights Concern, Prof. Ishaq Akintola, has urged patients recovering from the Coronavirus to heed medical advice and refrain from fasting when they are told to do so.
“The Quran permits sick person not to fast; the instruction is that a sick person should not fast. If a person is isolated because he is coming from a journey, he can fast because he is not sick yet and has no symptoms. “Somebody who is already identified as a COVID-19 patient should not fast because there are certain prescriptions of drugs that he has to be given and he should follow the prescription of medical experts and authorities.
He said: “Professionally, they should be able to have all the nutrients they require from the meals they take as they take balanced diets. Some commentators are looking at it from the view that the patients may not have the stamina to restrict the destructive effort of the virus. I don’t think so.
