Expiation for missing the fast of Ramadan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner, Abdullah, says: Honorable Shaykh, several past Ramadans have passed me by, and I broke my fast in them. What is the expiation I owe now? And how many expiations are there? May you be rewarded.

Answer:
The expiation alone is not sufficient; the fast must be made up. You must make up the Ramadans in order: the first Ramadan, then the second, then the third, until you have finished fasting the months that are in your debt. You must also feed one poor person for every day as expiation for the delay. Yes.
