Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
My brother, Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If a person has a vow of fasting remaining, with five days left to make up, and he delays them until after the month of Ramadan, does he fast these days after Ramadan, or does he bring forward the fasting of the six days of Shawwal?
Answer:
He has the choice; if he wishes, he fasts the remainder of the vow, and if he wishes, he fasts six days of Shawwal. Especially if it is a vow of expiation, he should prioritize it, because a vow does not have a specific time.
The presenter:
