Making up the days of Ramadan that one fasted while ignorant of the rulings of fasting after converting to Islam

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This person says: I converted to Islam fifteen years ago, and my conversion took place during the month of Ramadan. I did not know the rulings of fasting, so I may have drunk or eaten after the dawn. Do I have to make up those days now?

Answer:
Yes. After your conversion, you must make up the days you did not fast after becoming a Muslim. Ignorance does not remove the obligation, but it removes the sin. Yes.
