Question:
The questioner, Abu 'Adil, says that he did not fast the six days this year, Honorable Shaykh, due to an illness that has persisted for months. He says: I have been accustomed to fasting the six days of Shawwal. Is it permissible for me to fast these days at my current time?
Answer:
No, they are not made up. If their time has passed, they are not made up. They are in Shawwal, as the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:As-Sunan al-Kubra lil-Nasa'i 13:437 He said: from Shawwal. So when Shawwal ends, the time for the six days ends, so they are not made up. Yes.
