What is the ruling on one who delays making up a day of Ramadan until another Ramadan has entered?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The questioner, a woman, says: I missed days in Ramadan last year, and I missed them at the end of Sha'ban.

Another questioner : My dear, welcome.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : A woman says: I broke my fast for days in Ramadan last year, so I read [the Qur'an] at the end of Sha'ban, and I had only one day left to make up. Then my menstruation came, and I delayed until the end of this year's Ramadan. What is obligatory for me regarding that day?

The Shaykh : Yes, it is obligatory for her to make up this day that she was unable to make up before the entry of this year's Ramadan. When Ramadan ends this year, she makes up what she missed from last year's Ramadan, and there is no blame on her. She owes no expiation because she was excused. Even if she had not been excused, she would owe only the sin, along with making up the fast.
