How to Make Up the Missed Fasting of Ramadan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good. One of our sisters sent a question, and she says: The questioner is Umm Amjad. Umm Amjad says: I have missed fasting days from Ramadan, and the number of days is thirty-three. Ten of them are from seven years ago, and the rest are from three years ago. How do I make up these days? Is there any charity due on me? How do I pay that charity? Knowing that, by the praise of Allah, I have fasted all of those days.

The Shaykh:
Yes. The way to fast is that you fast the days of the first month of Ramadan, then you fast the days from Ramadan of the year after that, and so on. Do you fast?

The questioner:
Two days. From the first Ramadan.

The Shaykh:
The first one. The ones you broke from it. Then

The questioner:
you mark them.

The Shaykh:
The days from the Ramadan that followed, and so on.

The questioner:
And if it has passed.

The Shaykh:
over these days.

The questioner:
Yes.

The Shaykh:
and you have not made them up, then it is obligatory for you, along with making them up, to feed a poor person for each day of the delay, unless this delay was for a valid religious excuse, in which case there is no harm in that, and making them up is sufficient. Yes.
