Answer

In the name of Allah, the ransom (Fidia) is due only when fasting harms her or her fetus, but leaving fasting because of menstruation or postpartum period is to be fasted as an overdue fasting only without a ransom (Fidia). Regarding where to pay, you can give it to the needy people in your neighborhood, who are shia Ithna Ashari, or you can also send the amount to us here in Najaf Ashraf and we manage it Inshallah. Allah is the All Guide and Knowing.
