The manner of making up fasting from Ramadan?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : And this is a woman asking, may Allah bless you: How does a woman make up her fasting after Ramadan? Does she make up the days she did not fast consecutively or separately? And which is better?
Answer : For the one who has to make up fasting from Ramadan, whether a woman who menstruated or a man who was sick or traveling, it is better to hasten to make it up, because fasting is a debt, and the sooner a person makes it up, the better, since a person does not know what may befall him; he may become unable to fast, or he may die, and it remains a debt on his soul. So hastening to fast is more appropriate and better, and the making up should be consecutive. However, with that, a person has a dispensation to delay making up the fast until the time between him and the second Ramadan is equal to what he owes. In this case, if the amount of Sha'ban remaining is equal to what he owes from the previous Ramadan, it is obligatory for him to fast and not delay until the second Ramadan. It is better to be hasty and consecutive, and if he separates them, making up one day and breaking the fast one day, or making up one day and breaking the fast two days, or making up one day of the week, there is no blame on him. The important thing is that the second Ramadan does not arrive until he has finished.
