The ruling on the intention for making up Ramadan after the dawn

Question:
May Allah benefit Islam and the Muslims through you. This questioner says: The intention to make up Ramadan after the Fajr prayer. He says: I made up the fast, but I did not form the intention until after Fajr. Is this considered making up the fast, or is it a voluntary fast?

Answer:
This is not valid. The intention for fasting in Ramadan, or for making up fasts after Ramadan, or for any obligatory fast by vow or expiation, is not valid. An obligatory fast is not valid except with an intention made at night before the dawn breaks, based on the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) The intention is from the night, meaning this applies to the obligatory fast.
As for voluntary fasting, there is no harm in forming the intention during the day, provided that he has not eaten or drunk after the dawn appeared. He may form the intention during the day because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to form the intention for voluntary fasting during the day. Sometimes. Yes.
