The ruling on one who completed his fast for thirty days and then found his country fasting

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah be with you. So if a person goes to a country and has completed his fast for thirty days, and when he arrives he finds them fasting, what does he do?

The Shaykh:
He fasts with them and completes the fast with them. Yes.

The presenter:
He may fast an extra day.

The Shaykh:
And he resolves to fast with them and does not break his fast; he completes it with them. However, if he comes to them and they are not fasting, and he has only fasted twenty-eight days, he makes up what he missed with them. Yes.

The presenter:
A little. With them, afterwards.

The Shaykh:
Yes, he differs from them and makes up what he missed. Yes.
