Summary
The current fidyah rate in Perlis is RM5.00 for each missed day of fasting, based on the cost of one meal. Fidyah does not have to be doubled even when the debt carries over across years. It may also be paid by hosting a meal for the poor and needy or by giving them food necessities directly at the stated value. Voluntarily paying more than the obligatory rate is regarded as a good act.
