Question:
She says: I was twelve years old and had reached the age of maturity, but I was weak and ill and could not bear fasting. I did not fast for a period of three years, meaning three Ramadans. I fasted on one day and became severely ill, and my family would scold me whenever I fasted. When I grew up, I realized the importance of fasting, so I sought a ruling from one of the scholars. He said: Fast to make up what you owe, and do not feed people, because you were ignorant. What is the ruling? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
Two things are obligatory for you. The first is fasting to make up what was missed. The second is feeding one poor person for every day as expiation for the delay. Yes.
