can a person fast for another person who feels difficulty in making his qadha fasts? what is the meaning of name Khuzaeymah ?

Answer

1. No one can keep Qadhaa fast on behalf of another. If it is truly difficult for the person to keep Qadhaa, then he/she should pay Fidyah for all outstanding fasts.

2. Khuzaymah is the name of a number of famous Sahaabas (Radhiallaahu Anhum). We were unable to locate its literal meaning.
