Abstract
In this paper, first we are going to introduce the fuzzy q-derivative and fuzzy q-fractional derivative in Caputo sense by using generalized Hukuhara difference, and then provide the related theorems and properties in detail. Moreover, the characterization theorem between the solutions of fuzzy Caputo q-fractional initial value problem (for short FCqF-IVP), which allows us to translate a FCqF-IVP and system of ordinary Caputo q-fractional differential equations (for short OCqF-DEs), is presented. In detail, the existence and uniqueness theorem is proved for the solution of FCqF-IVP. Finally, we restrict our attention to explain our idea for solving the FCqF-IVP and introducing its numerical solution by means of q-Mittag-Leffler function. The numerical examples demonstrate that the proposed idea is quite reasonable.

Notes
\([\alpha ]\) denotes the smallest integer greater or equal to \(\alpha \).
The set of fuzzy-valued function f which are defined on \(_{q}\Omega \), and be fuzzy continuous from the interior points of \(_{q}\Omega \).
i.e., for any \(\varepsilon >0\) and any \((t, x, y)\in \mathbb {T}_{q}\times \mathbb {R}^2\) we have \(\mid \underline{f}(t, x, y;r)-\underline{f}(t_1, x_1, y_1;r)\mid <\varepsilon \) and \(\mid {\overline{f}}(t, x, y;r)-{\overline{f}}(t_1, x_1, y_1;r)\mid <\varepsilon \),\( \forall r\in [0,1]\) whenever \(\Vert (t_1,x_1, y_1)-(t, x, y)\Vert <\delta .\)
