Making up missed fasts from previous years and feeding the poor

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A woman fell ill, and sixteen years have passed since she missed the fasts of Ramadan, and she has not made them up. Now she is in good health and asks what is required of her?

Answer:
She has two obligations. First, making up the fasts; she must make them up. Second, she must feed one poor person for each day. For each day, she gives out a kilo of heavy grain to the poor. And if she gathers it all and gives it to one poor person or one household in one lump sum, does that suffice? Yes.
