Is a single intention sufficient for fasting Ramadan, or is it necessary to renew the intention for each day?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks, Honorable Shaykh, about the condition of the intention when the month begins: is there one intention, or is there an intention for every night?

Answer:
There is a general intention, which is to intend to fast the month, and there is an intention for every night. This is necessary; the general intention is required when the month begins, and the intention to fast is required for every night. This is because the fast of each day is an independent act of worship, so it requires an intention. Yes.
