Question:
She says: She reached her monthly period at the age of twelve, before Ramadan, but she did not fast that Ramadan out of ignorance. Years have passed, and she has not made up the fasts to this day. Is it obligatory for her to make up the fasts, or pay expiation, or both making up the fasts and paying expiation? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
Yes, it is obligatory for her to make up the fasts for the Ramadan she left, because after reaching puberty, it is obligatory for her to fast Ramadan, and all other religious obligations are required of her, such as prayer, fasting, and other obligatory acts of the Shari'ah. So she must make up this month for which she left fasting after reaching puberty, and along with making up the fasts, she must feed one poor person for each day for the delay, in the amount of half a sa' (a dry measure of about 3 kg) for each day, to be given to a poor person. This is approximately one and a half kilograms for all the days she did not fast, in addition to making up the fasts. Yes.
