She has a debt of fasting and doubts whether she completed it

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q2: A woman says: I gave birth to a daughter several years ago in Ramadan after fasting 4 days, so I ate that month. During the make-up fasts, I did not remember how many days I had fasted to distinguish between the days , and I am mostly of the opinion that I did not complete the make-up fasts. What is the ruling on this, with details? And may Allah reward you with good.
A2: It is obligatory for this woman, who doubts about making up the fasting that was obligatory upon her for Ramadan, to cut off the doubt with certainty. She should investigate what remains of her fasting based on what is most likely, and fast that amount. If she delayed the make-up fasts until another Ramadan arrived without an excuse, she must, in addition to making up the fasts, feed one poor person for each day. The amount is: half a sa' (a dry measure of about 3 kg) of dates, wheat, rice, or something similar that is the staple food of the country, approximately one and a half kilograms. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
