Question:
She says: For several years, I broke my fast in Ramadan for an excuse, but I have not made it up until now. It was out of my ignorance. Also, I chose to break it when I was young, without an excuse. Imagine you are addressing me now.
Answer:
If she was young, meaning she had not reached puberty, then she is excused. If she had reached puberty, then she must make up the days she broke, even if it was in a previous time. She must make up the days she broke. She feeds one poor person for each day for the delay. The amount is half a sa' of food, which is approximately one and a half kilograms, for each day, which she gives to a poor person for the delay that occurred.
