Question:
In one of the months of Ramadan, I intentionally broke my fast without any excuse; I was merely negligent in some matters of religion. Now I have repented, and praise be to Allah, and may Allah accept my repentance. Do I have to make up the day I broke?
Answer:
Yes, it is obligatory for you to make up the day you broke. If it was from a past Ramadan, it is obligatory for you, in addition to making it up, to feed a poor person as expiation for the delay. As for one who broke a fast in the recent Ramadan, nothing is required of you but making it up. Yes.
