The woman who has missed days of Ramadan and a lunar year has passed without making them up: does she owe an expiation?

The questioner : Please. Peace be upon you.

The Shaykh : Peace be upon you and Allah's mercy.

The presenter : How are you, Shaykh Muhammad?

The Shaykh : Except you.

The presenter : I love you for the sake of Allah.

The Shaykh : May Allah love you too, in the thirtieth [day].

The questioner : I tell you, Shaykh Muhammad, the woman who broke her fast in Ramadan because of her menstrual days. A lunar year passed, and another lunar year passed, and she was unable to make up these days because of the fatigue of pregnancy and such. She gave birth a few days after the following Ramadan. And she was unable to make up the fasts. So what is required of her? Does she make them up after Ramadan?

The Shaykh : Yes, she is required to make them up after Ramadan, and she does not owe an expiation.

The presenter : And she does not owe an expiation. May Allah reward you with good, Shaykh Muhammad.
