Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, there is a woman who vowed to fast one day and break her fast the day after, and so on. Does she have to make up the days she broke her fast for a valid legal excuse, such as menstruation, post-natal bleeding, illness, or the like? As for if she continues after the excuse is gone, other than post-natal bleeding, which does not count in…
Answer:
In a vow, the days of the festival, the days of menstruation, and the days of post-natal bleeding do not count in the vow. The days of travel, all valid legal excuses, these do not count in the vow. They are excluded. If she broke her fast in them for a valid legal excuse, there is no harm, and they do not count in the vow. The vow is only for the days in which there is no valid legal excuse.
