Question:
Also, the questioner Ahmad al-Hamid has a second question. Shaykh Salih says: What is the ruling on one who reaches Ramadan while owing fasts from previous Ramadans, given that the delay in making them up was due to an excuse?
Answer:
He fasts the Ramadan that has arrived and delays making up the past fasts until after the new Ramadan. If his delay was due to an excuse that prevented him, he owes only making up the fasts. If it was due to laziness, he owes, in addition to making up the fasts, feeding one poor person for each day of the delay. Yes.
