Question:
Finally, Shaykh, if a person had a full month of fasts to make up, and he has, for example, a group of sons, twenty or fifteen, and he divides them among them so that each one fasts two days, for instance?
Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that, provided that continuity is not a condition of the expiation. In that case, their fasting on his behalf must be consecutive. However, for Ramadan, there is nothing wrong with multiple people making up the fasts on behalf of the deceased. Yes.
