Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Which takes precedence: making up Ramadan, or fasting for the expiation of an oath or a vow?

Answer:
If he has specified days for the vow, he fasts those days, and the making up of Ramadan is flexible, so he fasts it on other days. As for if the vow is not specified, he has a choice: if he wishes, he fasts the making up first, and that is better; if he wishes, he fasts the vow. Yes.
