Delaying the fasting for expiation so that the days of the festival and the days of Tashreeq intervene

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : May Allah bless you. If he were to return to him the fasting for expiation and intentionally take this expiation with the other festival and the days of Tashreeq intervening in it, so that he rests a little. Is this correct?

Answer : There is no dispute. This is a case of circumventing an obligatory duty, which is continuity, and it is not permissible for him to do so. If he breaks his fast on the day of the festival or the days of Tashreeq, we should require him to start over, dealing with him in the opposite of his intention.
