Question:
Is it obligatory for one who delays making up days of Ramadan without an excuse, and then makes them up after a long period, to feed a poor person for each of these days because of the delay, or is fasting these days sufficient? May Allah reward you.
Answer:
If one delays making up the fasts without an excuse, and then makes them up, if he does so before the next Ramadan arrives, meaning he makes them up between the two Ramadans, then making up the fasts is sufficient. However, if he delays them until after another Ramadan without an excuse, then he must do two things: make up the fasts, and feed a poor person for each day due to the delay.
