Asalaamu alaykum, I have a question regarding feeding a poor person to make up a day of fasting. I was in early pregnancy last Ramadhan, I was very sick and was not able to fast very much. It left me with 21 days of fasting to make up. I had baby in July of this year, after the 40 days of post pardom bleeding and trying to establish a good supply of breast milk it leaves me little time to make up my missed days. I have made them all up but 10. I am trying but I am finding that the baby is taking alot away from me and at the end of a day of fasting I feel very weak. ( which I know is normal for a fasting person, but this is worse than I normally feel when not breastfeeding). My question is if I wanted to make up some days by feeding a poor person does that person have to be Muslim or can it be anyone? There is this homeless man I often see digging in trash when I am getting my husband from work and I often want to feed him. Could this count as making up a day of fasting even though he is not Muslim. The community of Muslims here is small and I don't know of very many REALLY needy Muslims.
