Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, we have received many questions in this episode regarding making up fasts on the day of 'Ashura, and how to form the intention in this case. Does he intend to make up the fast, or does he intend to fast 'Ashura? Does he receive the reward for that? Does he receive both rewards?
Answer:
One does not delay making up fasts until the day of 'Ashura. Rather, he fasts the day of 'Ashura with the intention of attaining the Sunnah and its virtue, and there is another time for making up the fasts, and the time for making up fasts is ample, praise be to Allah. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, our Shaykh, and may He benefit Islam and the Muslims with your knowledge.
