Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner says: My wife broke her fast for seven days in Ramadan of the year 1438 and did not make them up until Ramadan of 1439, because she was pregnant and fasting was difficult for her due to the pregnancy.
Answer:
She must make up the fasts, and nothing is required of her other than making them up if the delay occurred after the new Ramadan due to an excuse. However, if a new Ramadan arrives while she still has fasts to make up from the previous Ramadan, and she delayed them out of laziness, then two things are obligatory for her: she must make up the fasts, and she must feed one poor person for every day. Yes.
