Question:
This questioner asks about fasting the six days of Shawwal. He says that he fasts the six days, but they are not consecutive. Is there anything wrong with that?

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that. He may fast them consecutively or separately during the month of Shawwal, because the hadith is general: “Follow it with six days from Shawwal,” and it did not say “consecutively.” So the matter is broad in this regard. Yes.
