Fasting the Day of 'Arafah with the Intention of Making Up a Missed Fast and Its Reward

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The presenter reviewed some of the questions from the brother Abu Sa'd. If this question remains: If a woman fasts the Day of 'Arafah with the intention of making up a missed fast, does she receive the reward of the Day of 'Arafah, which is expiation for two years, as stated in the hadith?

Answer:
This is a point of difficulty, and Allah has made things easy for her. Why does she resort to this? She should fast the Day of 'Arafah as the fast of the Day of 'Arafah, seeking its reward, and then make up the missed day on another day. Allah has made things easy for her.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you and bless you.
