Fasting to Make Up Missed Days on the Day of 'Ashura

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: If a person has missed days from Ramadan that he must make up, is it permissible for him to fast the make-up days on the Day of 'Ashura so that he is absolved of the make-up obligation and also receives the reward for fasting on 'Ashura?

Answer:
The make-up of missed fasts is given a wide time frame, whereas the Day of 'Ashura passes quickly. So one should fast on the Day of 'Ashura, even if he has missed days from Ramadan that he must make up; he can make them up afterwards. The make-up of missed fasts is given a wide time frame, praise be to Allah. Yes.
