Making up the six days of Shawwal after the month of Shawwal has ended

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If you have lived a long life and did not fast the six days in Shawwal, should I make them up in Dhul Qa'dah or fast them?

Answer:
No, my brother, no,
Whoever fasts Ramadan and then follows it with six days of Shawwalمَنْ صَامَ رَمَضَانَ فَأَتْبَعَهُ سِتًّا مِنْ شَوَّالٍ
As-Sunan al-Kubra lil-Nasa'i 13:437
the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) specified them for the month of Shawwal, so if the month of Shawwal has passed, their time has been missed.

The presenter:
Thank you, O 'Abd al-Rahman,
