Making up a voluntary fast if one breaks it in the middle

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. In the hadith of Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to her and to Hafsa: “Fast another day in its place.” Is it prescribed to make up a voluntary fast if one breaks it in the middle?

Answer:
It is not prescribed, but perhaps this ruling is specific to those two women, and Allah knows best. Yes.
