Forcing a wife to break her fast in making up Ramadan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a wife fasts to make up Ramadan without her husband's permission, is he allowed to force her to break her fast?

Answer:
No, if she has entered into an obligatory act, it is forbidden to break it. As for a voluntary fast, yes, he may force her to break it. But as for an obligatory fast, no.
