Question:
This questioner, Your Eminence the Shaykh, says: A woman gives birth constantly in the month of Ramadan, and it is difficult for her to make up the fasts because of her preoccupation with the children and household matters. What must she do?
Answer:
She must make up the fasts; it is obligatory for her to make them up according to her ability. Even if she gave birth in two or three years, all in Ramadan, [al-Taghābun:16] she may postpone if she is unable, postponing until it becomes easy for her to make them up. And if she is able, she must make them up. But if she is occupied with the children and fasting is difficult for her, she may postpone until after Ramadan, when there are no children and no hardship. [al-Taghābun:16] He (Exalted and Majestic is He) says: [al-Baqarah:185] The nursing mother is like the sick person; the nursing mother is like the sick person, and she may postpone until she is able. Yes.
