If a sister breaks her fast in due to illness and is unable to make up for it until she dies, there is nothing upon her, and the same applies to the six days, provided she did not neglect making up the fast. If she had an obligatory fast to make up, and her guardian fasted on her behalf, then her obligation is absolved, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Whoever dies owing fasts, his guardian should fast on his behalf."
