Delaying the making up of Ramadan without excuse and feeding the poor

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
For example, if Ramadan has passed in this year, does he expiate for every day, or does the year end and he expiates?

The Shaykh:
It ends only with the commencement of taking the pledge of allegiance; the Sunnah ends with the commencement of taking the pledge of allegiance.

The questioner:
And when the month departs, he feeds the poor for the delay.

The Shaykh:
The sanctity of Ramadan is not violated; there is nothing in it that he wishes.

The questioner:
From Ramadan until Ramadan is equivalent.

The Shaykh:
And he repents, seeking forgiveness from Allah, seeking forgiveness from Allah, Exalted and Majestic is He.

The questioner:
The delay is from me.

Another questioner:
In this month, for example, and I delayed it after Ramadan, do I feed the poor?

The Shaykh:
Without an excuse.

Another questioner:
Yes, without an excuse.

The Shaykh:
You fast and you expiate.

Another questioner:
You interpret, you watch.

The Shaykh:
You fast and you feed. And you feed. Yes.

Another questioner:
And the expiation is likewise after the month of Dhul-Hijjah. Likewise, if he delays, he says in this year, “I will fast so much.”

The Shaykh:
A little, you mean? Yes, indeed, there is no harm except that he makes it up and that is all; there is nothing else in it. May Allah reward you.
