Question:
May Allah bless you. Moving on to another question. This person, Abu Ayyad, says: A person fasts the white days every month, then he becomes ill or travels in one of the months of the year. Does he fast these days as a make-up when his excuse is gone, or is it said that the reward for his deed has been obtained, based on his saying (peace and blessings be upon him)Sahih al-Bukhari 2996
Answer:
What is prescribed is fasting three days of every month; this is the recommended practice. These three days are not missed, whether he fasts them at the beginning of the month, in the middle of it—which is what is called the white days—or at the end of it. He fasts them at the end of the month as a performance, not as a make-up. Yes.

When a slave falls ill or travels, then he will get reward similar to that he gets for good deeds practiced at home when in good health.
