Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A woman has days to make up from Ramadan. She used to fast Thursday and Friday every week, and sometimes she would fast only Friday. Is it permissible to fast only Friday for making up missed days? Please give us a ruling, and may Allah reward you. May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that. Some scholars have mentioned that it is disliked to fast Friday alone as a voluntary fast, but there is nothing wrong with fasting Friday alone for making up missed days, and it does not fall under the disliked category. Yes.
