Fitrana for a Family: Worked Examples (Ramadan 1447)
Fitrana worked out for families of 1 to 10 at every staple — wheat Rs 310 to dates Rs 20,000 per person.
The per-person rates this Ramadan
Every figure on this page is built from one set of per-person rates: those published by Dar al-Ifta (Minhaj-ul-Quran) for Pakistan for Ramadan 1447 Hijri / 2026 — wheat flour Rs 310, barley Rs 1,180, medium dates Rs 2,400, raisins Rs 4,800, cheese Rs 8,000 and high-quality dates Rs 20,000 per person. Fitrana is the per-person rate multiplied by the number of people you are paying for; nothing else enters the sum.
You pay for yourself and your minor children; adult family members owe their own, though households usually pay together. Choose the staple by your own standard of living — the tables below show the wheat column in full and the other staples for the two most common family sizes.
Fitrana at the wheat rate, by family size
At the wheat rate of Rs 310 per person: 1 person Rs 310 · 2 people Rs 620 · 3 people Rs 930 · 4 people Rs 1,240 · 5 people Rs 1,550 · 6 people Rs 1,860 · 7 people Rs 2,170 · 8 people Rs 2,480 · 9 people Rs 2,790 · 10 people Rs 3,100.
The same sizes at the other staples, for a family of 4: barley Rs 4,720 · medium dates Rs 9,600 · raisins Rs 19,200 · cheese Rs 32,000 · high-quality dates Rs 80,000. For a family of 6: barley Rs 7,080 · medium dates Rs 14,400 · raisins Rs 28,800 · cheese Rs 48,000 · high-quality dates Rs 120,000.
A mixed household, worked out
Families do not have to pick one column for everyone: each person's fitrana follows the staple that matches that person's own standard. Take a house of six — grandparents who eat well and four others at the household's usual level. If the two grandparents give at medium dates (2 × Rs 2,400 = Rs 4,800) and the other four at wheat (4 × Rs 310 = Rs 1,240), the family's fitrana is Rs 4,800 + Rs 1,240 = Rs 6,040.
The fitrana calculator does exactly this arithmetic with any mix: pick a staple, set how many people, and it multiplies for you — and if market prices have moved since the Dar al-Ifta announcement, edit the rate first and the same tables follow your figure.
If the same house also owes fidya
Fitrana is per person; fidya is per missed fast, and one day's fidya equals one person's fitrana. If the grandfather in that house could not fast at all, his 30 days at the wheat level are 30 × Rs 310 = Rs 9,300, on top of the family's fitrana of Rs 6,040. Who may pay fidya at all — and who must instead make the fasts up — is set out in our fidya guide; the fitrana & fidya calculator counts both on one screen.
Before you pay
Fitrana must reach the poor before the Eid prayer, so work the sum out in the last days of Ramadan rather than on Eid morning. If prices in your city differ from the announcement, use your local price for the same weights — 2 kg of wheat flour, 4 kg of the other staples — rather than someone else's total.
