Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If one fasts on the seventh and eighth days, and has one day remaining, does he fast on the Day of 'Arafah, or does he postpone it to after the festival? And does separating it by the day of the festival have any effect? He should postpone it to the days of Tashriq; he fasts after the festival.
Answer:
No, it has no effect. Three days in Hajj; Allah the Exalted and Majestic did not specify that they must be consecutive, so if he separates them during Hajj, there is nothing wrong with it. Yes.
