The Intention for Fasting the Six Days of Shawwal During the Day

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, if a person intends to fast this day during the daytime and intends with his fast that it be one of the six days of Shawwal, is that valid, even though he only intended it during the day?

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that, provided he has not eaten or drunk. This is all based on the fact that he intended the fast after the dawn, and that it be one of the six days. There is nothing wrong with that, because voluntary fasts are permissible with an intention made during the day, on the condition that he has not eaten or drunk after the dawn. Yes.
