Making up Ramadan for the one who delayed it until another Ramadan entered, and she fasted a voluntary fast

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, a woman broke her fast for several days due to menstruation, then another Ramadan began, and she did not make up those days. She had been fasting voluntary fasts before the start of Ramadan, but she did not make up the days she owed. What should she do, considering that she has not yet fasted the days she missed in the first Ramadan?

Answer:
She is playing with her religion. Why did she not ask before? If there are only as many days left until Ramadan as the number of days a person owes, it is not permissible for him to fast voluntary fasts; he must fast to make up the missed days and complete them before the new Ramadan begins. However, if he delays making up the fasts until a new Ramadan arrives without an excuse, or if he fasts voluntary fasts instead, then she must make up the fasts, and she is subject to a trial (fitnah). She must make up the fasts, and she must feed one poor person for each day as compensation for the delay. Yes.
