If one is fasting the expiation for zihar and 'Id al-Adha and the days of Tashreeq arrive, does he continue the fast?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The first question of Fatwa number ( 20086 )
Q1: A man owes the expiation for zihar, which is fasting two consecutive months. During the expiation, 'Id al-Adha and the three days of Tashreeq arrived. Does he fast and complete the expiation, or does he break his fast on these days?
A1: The obligatory breaking of the fast, such as on the day of 'Id and the days of Tashreeq, does not break the consecutiveness of the fast for expiation; because it is a breaking of the fast that is permitted by the Shari'ah. So, when the obligatory breaking of the fast ends, he builds upon what has passed of his fasting for the expiation—may Allah be praised—until he completes the two months, sixty days.
And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
