There are different types of diabetics. Some are in a condition that allows them to fast, and they must do so. Others cannot fast because it affects their health; they should break their fast and make up for it later if they can, or pay the if they cannot make it up. As for Hajj, if they experience hardship, they can be carried during circumambulation () and appoint someone to perform the Rami (stoning) on their behalf. They can also pray while sitting if they are unable to stand. They must follow the instructions of a trustworthy Muslim doctor.
