Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The hadith of A'ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that she used to say: "I had fasts to make up from Ramadan, and I did not make them up until Sha'ban." What is the reason for her delay?

Answer:
She said: "Because of the position of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)"; due to her continuous connection with the Messenger and his need for her.
Q: If one delays it until Sha'ban for no pressing need?
A: There is nothing wrong with it; there is nothing wrong between Ramadan and Ramadan.
Q: If one delays it after Ramadan?
A: It is not permissible. A group of the Companions issued a ruling that he must feed a poor person for every day, in addition to making up the fasts.
