Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
In the last of this questioner’s questions from Yemen, she asks: Is it permissible to fast the six days of Shawwal before making up missed fasts?
Answer:
It is obligatory to prioritize making up the missed fasts, because making them up is more important. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Jami` at-Tirmidhi 759Sahih (Darussalam). So, the one who fasts the six days before completing Ramadan has not followed him. One must start by making up the fasts of Ramadan, and then fast the six days. Yes.
