Consecutive Fasting for the Expiation of an Oath

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Is it obligatory for the fasting as expiation for an oath to be three consecutive days, or can it be intermittent?

Answer:
Yes, they must be consecutive, because the verse states “fasting for three days” in a reading where they are consecutive, so they are to be performed consecutively. Yes.
