Question:
The questioner says: I am a woman who vowed to fast for two months. Should I fast them consecutively or separately?
Answer:
This depends on the intention. If she said “two consecutive months” or intended in her heart that they be consecutive, then that is obligatory for her. However, if she did not intend consecutiveness and did not utter it, then she fasts sixty days, because the days of two months equal sixty days, even if they are not consecutive. Yes.
