A woman making up the days she did not fast in Ramadan due to breastfeeding

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Is it obligatory for a woman to make up the fasting of Ramadan that she did not perform because of breastfeeding, after she has weaned her child?

The Shaykh:
Does it?

The questioner:
Is it obligatory for a woman to make up the fasting of Ramadan that she did not perform because of breastfeeding, after she has weaned her child?

The Shaykh:
It is obligatory for her to make up the fasts, because Ramadan is a pillar of Islam. However, if she did not fast for a valid religious excuse and the excuse is removed, she must make up the days she did not fast; her obligation is not discharged except by doing so. Yes.
