It is not required to fast consecutively after the one performing Tamattu' returns from Hajj

Question:
May Allah reward you with good and do you good. Regarding the fasting of the seven days that we were commanded to fast after returning from Hajj: Is it obligatory to fast them consecutively, or is it permissible to separate them? And do I have a sin on me if I did not fast them immediately after Hajj? I am informing you that I have not fasted them up to now, and my Hajj was last year.

Answer:
It is not required to fast them consecutively. The days that the one performing Tamattu' fasts, if he is unable to offer the fidyah (ransom payment) and returns to his family, he is permitted to fast them consecutively, and he is permitted to fast them separately, and he is permitted to hasten to fast them after returning or after the completion of Hajj, and he is permitted to delay them; because the verse is absolute, and Allah the Exalted says: . So the verse is absolute, but fasting them consecutively and hastening to fast them after the completion of Hajj is better, to clear the conscience and to hasten to perform the obligatory duty. Yes.
