Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah bless you. We are still with the questions from the Princess Al-Anoud Center for Memorizing the Qur'an. Is it permissible to begin fasting the six days of Shawwal before making up the missed days, if she fears that the month of Shawwal will pass, and she has many days of Ramadan to make up?
Answer:
The stronger opinion in this matter is that she does not fast the six days until she has completed making up the missed days. The saying of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) So she starts with making up the missed days. If there remains in Shawwal the number of days equal to the six, she fasts them. If nothing remains, praise be to Allah; making up the missed days is more obligatory for her. Yes.
