Is continuity required in the fasting for the expiation of an oath?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: Is it a condition that the fast for the expiation of an oath be consecutive?

Answer:
Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) did not mention consecutiveness in it; the fast is for three days. So if one is unable, he fasts for three days, and consecutiveness is not required; it is permissible to separate them. However, it was reported in a reading, in a reading, that the fast is for three consecutive days, but that reading was not established with him.
