Combining the intention to make up Ramadan fasts with the intention to fast the Day of 'Arafah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it valid to combine the intention to make up fasts with the intention to fast the Day of 'Arafah?

Answer:
This has no basis. The Day of 'Arafah is a recommended practice (sunnah). Fasting the Day of 'Arafah is a separate recommended practice, and a person does not combine this with that. So he must fast the make-up fasts first, and then fast the Day of 'Arafah when it comes. Yes.
