Question:
As soon as I reached puberty, I fasted some of Ramadan in the year I reached it. The questioner says: As soon as I reached puberty, I fasted some of Ramadan in the year I reached it. I did not complete the fasting of the month, and I do not know how many days I broke the fast, and this was about ten years ago, so what is obligatory for me now?
Answer:
For the days you broke the fast before reaching puberty, you owe nothing and you do not make them up. You do not make them up; rather, you make up what occurred after reaching puberty. What you broke the fast for after reaching puberty, you make up. As for what you broke the fast for before reaching puberty from the beginning of the month, you do not have to make it up because fasting was not obligatory for you.
