He did not fast Ramadan due to illness and fed people, and Allah granted him healing; does he have to make up the fasts or not?

Question:
An elderly man who was severely ill, with no hope of recovery, except that Allah the Exalted granted him healing. It is known that he informed [the scholars] about the month of Ramadan during his illness, and he fed a poor person for each day. Does he have to repeat the fasting for that month or not?

Answer:
Allah says, Glorified and Exalted is He: "And whoever is then [he must fast] other days." If the patient is an old, incapacitated man, he owes no making up of the fast, and feeding [the poor] suffices for him. If he is ill and the doctors have determined, out of despair of a cure, that the illness is not expected to end, and he feeds [the poor], but then Allah heals him, making up the fast is safer for him, and feeding [the poor] does not suffice for him. However, if he makes up the fast, it is safer due to the general consensus of the scholars. And whoever is ill or traveling, then [he must fast] other days.
