Who is required to fast?
Ibn Uthaymeen, may Allah have mercy on him, said:
Fasting is obligatory for every Muslim:
An adult, sane, capable, resident meaning not traveling, and free of impediments. These are six descriptions.
As for the infidel, he is not obligated to fast or other acts of worship. The meaning of our saying: He is not obligated to fast is that he is not obligated to do so during his disbelief, nor is he obligated to make up for it after his conversion to Islam, because the infidel his deed is not accepted From him while he is a disbeliever
[majmuu Al Fatwas (75/19)].
