Is it valid for a woman who broke her fast in Ramadan due to childbirth to fast the six days of Shawwal after making up her month, such that the fasting of the six days would be in Dhul-Qa'dah?

The questioner : In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
May Allah forgive you, O honorable Shaykh. A woman who was in post-natal bleeding bled throughout the entire month of Ramadan. She wants to fast the six days of Shawwal. If she makes up Ramadan in Shawwal, is it permissible for her to make up the six days of Shawwal in Sha'ban?

The Shaykh : Yes, if she makes up what she owes from Ramadan, let her continue, even if she does not fast except in Dhul-Qa'dah.

The questioner : She makes up the six days, O Shaykh?

The Shaykh : Yes, the six days of Shawwal, but the fasting of the six days of Shawwal was prevented because she did not fast Ramadan.

The questioner : She makes it up in a month other than Shawwal.

The Shaykh : Ah?

The questioner : She makes it up in a month other than Shawwal.

The Shaykh : How?

The questioner : She makes it up in a month other than Shawwal.

The Shaykh : Yes, in a month other than Shawwal. Is Dhul-Qa'dah from Shawwal?

The questioner : No, it is not.

The Shaykh : Yes, indeed.
