Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, how did fasting become gradual? Is there any evidence for this from the text of the Book and the Sunnah?
Answer:
My brother, in al-Baqarah, you do not read the Qur'an. First, Allah the Exalted. Fasting is three days, a few specified days. Then, they were given a choice: whoever wished could fast, and whoever wished could feed the poor. They were given the choice between fasting and feeding, and it was said to them, "Fasting is better for you." So when they became accustomed to fasting, Allah the Exalted said:[Al-Baqarah 2:185] [Al-Baqarah 2:185] This is the gradual implementation. Yes.

The month of Ramadhan [is that] in which was revealed the Qur'an
شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ الَّذِي أُنزِلَ فِيهِ الْقُرْآنُSo whoever sights [the new moon of] the month, let him fast it; and whoever is ill or on a journey - then an equal number of other days.
فَمَن شَهِدَ مِنكُمُ الشَّهْرَ فَلْيَصُمْهُ وَمَن كَانَ مَرِيضًا أَوْ عَلَىٰ سَفَرٍ فَعِدَّةٌ مِّنْ أَيَّامٍ أُخَرَ
