Question:
Honorable Shaykh, is it permissible to postpone making up the fasts of Ramadan for reasons that are not based on the Shari'ah?
Answer:
It is obligatory to hasten to make up the fasts of Ramadan, but the time is extended between the two Ramadans until there is no time left before the coming Ramadan except the number of days he owes from the first Ramadan. At that point, he must fast the days he owes and not delay them until the new Ramadan begins. Yes.
