The questioner:
We have a call from Muhammad from Umm Laji, please go ahead. Peace be upon you. Peace be upon you. Follow the Sunnah. O my aunt.
The Shaykh:
May Allah greet you.
The questioner:
Our Shaykh, Abu Salik, I fasted in Ramadan last year and the year before without an excuse and did not make up the fast. Is there another question? The second question is about fasting the day of 'Ashura; I fasted one day, and they tell you to fast the day before and the day after; did I fast or did I not fast? Okay, thank you, Muhammad. May Allah name you, if He wills.
The Shaykh:
As for making up the fast, you erred in delaying the make-up. It is obligatory to make up what you owe before the new Ramadan. Since the matter has occurred and you delayed it until after Ramadan, two things are required of you: first, making up the fast, and second, feeding a poor person for each day you delayed. As for the Ramadan after which no other Ramadan has come, you make up the day you fasted with repentance to Allah, because you said you fasted without an excuse. So you must repent to Allah and make up this day. Yes.
The questioner:
And regarding 'Ashura, he fasted one day.
The Shaykh:
This is the minimum that was reported. If he fasted the day before it, that would be more in accordance with the Sunnah. Yes.
The presenter:
Yes
