The questioner : He says: I fasted Ramadan—praise be to Allah—but I broke the fast for one day due to travel. After Ramadan, he says: but I broke the fast for one day due to travel, and after Ramadan I began fasting the six days of Shawwal. I remembered after three days had passed.
The Shaykh : Repeat the question?
The questioner : I fasted Ramadan—praise be to Allah—but I broke the fast for one day due to travel. After Ramadan, I began fasting the six days of Shawwal. I remembered after three days had passed that I had a day to make up. What is the ruling, and what should I do?
The Shaykh : Now, fifteen days of Shawwal have passed. Has anything been settled? Is the questioner present? Is the questioner there? Very well. In any case, in a situation like this, if a person begins fasting the six days while forgetting that he has a day to make up, then when he remembers the missed day, he should fast the day he owes and then complete the six days. This is because the requirement of order is dropped here due to his forgetting what he owed. The requirement of order is dropped by forgetting. However, if he had intended that day to be one of the six, he should not count it as making up the missed day, because the intention for making up a missed day must be made before dawn. Yes.
