Question : We have a call, please go ahead. She says: Shaykh, a woman broke her fast for a whole month because of post-natal bleeding, and she did not make up this month out of forgetfulness. She remembered it these days when she was old. What is required of her if she is unable to fast, Shaykh?
Answer : She is required to make up the fasts. If she is unable to do so because of her old age and does not expect to be able to do it after this, she must feed one poor person for every day. If she is unable to do it these days because of the long days and the intense heat, she should wait until winter comes. May Allah reward you and bless you.
