Fulfilling the Spiritual Obligations of the Deceased: Hiring A Proxy For Missed Prayers and Fasts

The Importance of a Will in Islam

When a loved one passes away, one of the most compassionate acts we can perform is ensuring their spiritual obligations are honored. In Islam, writing a will (wasiyyah) is not only a recommended practice but a vital step in safeguarding the deceased’s legacy. A well‑crafted will allows the deceased to express their wishes, distribute their assets, and address any unresolved religious duties—such as missed prayers (salah) or fasts (sawm)—to seek peace in the afterlife.

Compensating for Missed Prayers and Fasts

If the deceased had unfulfilled prayers or fasts, Islamic law permits compensating for these acts through a trusted representative. For example:

  • Missed Prayers – A proxy can perform the prayers on behalf of the deceased, ensuring their spiritual account is settled.
  • Missed Fasts – A proxy can fast on behalf of the deceased as compensation, ensuring their spiritual account is settled.

Finding a reliable and trustworthy person to carry out these duties can be challenging. Many families struggle to locate someone who understands the gravity of this responsibility, and the costs can be prohibitively high.
