وَإِنْ مَاتَ الْمَرِيضُ، أَوِ الْمُسَافِرُ، وَهُمَا عَلَى حَالِهِمَا: لَمْ يَلْزَمْهُمَا الْقَضَاءُ.
Translation: If the sick person or the traveller dies while each remains in the same excused condition, make-up is not incumbent upon them.
If the sick person dies while the illness continues, or the traveller dies while the travelling condition persists, without an opportunity to make up the missed days, the author states that qaḍāʾ is not incumbent upon them for those days.
“While both remain in their state” is decisive. It does not say that every person dying with missed fasts is treated identically, regardless of having had a period of opportunity.
