Making up the fast of the six days of Shawwal that were missed

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This one also says: I was ill last year in Shawwal and was unable to fast six days of Shawwal. Should I fast six days of Shawwal this year, and then another six days to make up for last year, in order to seek its reward?

Answer:
Voluntary prayers, if their time is missed, are not made up. So you do not make up the six days of Shawwal from last year; it is sufficient for you to fast the six days of Shawwal for this year. Yes.
