8:68 - Had it not been for a previous ordainment from Allah a severe penalty would have reached
you for the (ransom) that ye took. 1235
1235 Though any motive of worldly gain, which may have been in the minds of some among the victorious Muslim army, is
condemned as worthy of a severe penalty, what actually happened is ascribed to the Plan of Allah, which was
preordained. Among the prisoners taken were the Prophet's uncle 'Abbas and Hadhrat 'Ali's brother, Aqil, who
afterwards became Muslims. 'Abbas was an ancestor of the founder of the celebrated 'Abbasi Dynasty which played
such a notable part in Islamic history. In his case the promise made in verse 70 was amply fulfilled. In the case of all
prisoners, if there was any good in their hearts, their very fight against Islam and their capture led to their being
blessed with Islam. Thus does Allah's Plan work in a marvellous way, and evolve good out of seemingevil. (8.68)
10:54 - Every soul that hath sinned if it possessed all that is on earth would fain give it in ransom:
they would declare (their) repentance when they see the Penalty: but the judgment between
them will be with justice and no wrong will be done unto them. 14441445
1445 Declare their repentance: the verb in the original is asarru, which may mean either "declare" or "reveal" or else
"conceal" or "hide". The classical Commentators are divided as to the meaning to be adopted here. If the first, which I
prefer, the sense would be: "When the Penalty stares the sinners in the face, they would give anything to escape it,
and they would even openly declare their repentance, which would be a source of shame and ignominy to them." If
the latter meaning be taken, the sense would be: "They would give anything to escape the Penalty; but the hardest
thing of all for them is frankly to confess and repent, and so they conceal their sense of shame and ignominy." (10.54)
13:18 - For those who respond to their Lord are (all) good things. But those who respond not to
Him even if they had all that is in the heavens and on earth and as much more (in vain) would
they offer it for ransom. For them will the reckoning be terrible: their abode will be Hell what a
bed of misery! 1833
1833 Cf. iii. 91 and x. 54. (13.18)
47:4 - Therefore when ye meet the Unbelievers (in fight) smite at their necks; at length when ye
have thoroughly subdued them bind a bond firmly (on them): thereafter (is the time for) either
generosity or ransom: Until the war lays down its burdens. Thus (are ye commanded): but if it
had been Allah's Will He could certainly have exacted retribution from them (Himself); but (He
lets you fight) in order to test you some with others. But those who are slain in the way of
Allah He will never let their deeds be lost. 48204821482248234824

Making Up Missed Days of Ramadan
Making up missed days of Ramadan is an obligation that need not be fulfilled immediately because the time for fulfilling is
very wide and one may perform it at any time. This is also the case with the fast of expiation. It has been authentically
reported that 'Aishah would make up her missed days during the month of Sha'ban (the month preceding Ramadan), and that
she did not perform them immediately even if she had the ability to do so……
Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith
Hadith 6.42 Narrated by
Abdullah bin Maqal
I sat with Ka'b bin Ujra in this mosque, i.e. Kufa Mosque, and asked him about the meaning of: "Pay a ransom (i.e. Fidya) of
either fasting or..." (2.196) He said, "I was taken to the Prophet while lice were falling on my face. The Prophet said, 'I did not
think that your trouble reached to such an extent. Can you afford to slaughter a sheep (as a ransom for shaving your head)?' I
said, 'No.' He said, 'Then fast for three days, or feed six poor persons by giving half a Sa of food for each and shave your
head.' So the above Verse was revealed especially for me and generally for all of you."

Hadith 8.562
Narrated by
Anas bin Malik
The Prophet said, "Allah will say to the person who will have the minimum punishment in the Fire on the
Day of Resurrection, 'If you had things equal to whatever is on the earth, would you ransom yourself (from
the punishment) with it?' He will reply, 'Yes.' Allah will say, 'I asked you a much easier thing than this
while you were in the backbone of Adam, that is, not to worship others besides Me, but you refused and
insisted to worship others besides Me.' "
