Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: Is it permissible to combine the fast for the expiation of an oath with the six days of Shawwal under a single intention?
Answer:
No, that does not suffice. It does not suffice for you to fast the six days of Shawwal and say, "This is the expiation for an oath." The expiation for an oath is fasted on its own, and the six days of Shawwal are fasted on their own. Because this is not that. Yes. The questioner says: Fasting the expiation is obligatory, and fasting the six days of Shawwal is recommended. Yes.
