If a person is required to fast two months as expiation, does the continuity break if it falls on a day of Eid?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : A person is obligated to fast consecutive months as expiation, and a day of Eid falls within that period?
The Shaykh : Whatever continuity is required in fasting, if a person has a valid legal excuse, whether the excuse is physical or otherwise, the continuity is not broken. Accordingly, if a woman is required to fast two consecutive months and she menstruates, she does not fast during menstruation, and when she becomes pure, she continues from where she left off. Similarly, if a person is required to fast two consecutive months and he travels and breaks his fast during the journey, then when he returns from the journey, he continues from where he left off. The conclusion is: if something prevents continuity due to a valid legal or physical excuse, the continuity is not broken.
The questioner : One person fasted the days of Tashreeq and hastened in two days?
The Shaykh : Yes, there is no harm. He continues, he continues fasting, even if he travels.
