Can You Fast the Day after `Eid Al-Fitr?
`Eid Al-Fitr is just one day on which it is prohibited to fast. As for the second and third days of Shawwal, it is not prohibited to fast on those days. It is permissible to fast it to make up a missed Ramadan fast or as a voluntary fast.99,155She did not fast because she was pregnant and breast-feeding, and she did not make up the missed fasts until she got old and became unable to make them up, then she died.

8,032She fasts on Mondays and Thursdays with the intention that if she owes any outstanding Ramadan fasts then these are to make up for them, otherwise they are naafil fasts
If a woman is not sure whether a fast is obligatory or not in her case, then she intends to fast with an uncertain intention: if she owes any fasts, then this will be making up a fast, and if she does not owe any fasts, then her fast will be naafil. In that case her fast will be valid and will make up the missed fast, if she owed any fasts for days that she missed in Ramadan. However, what she should do is not make this the case in all of her fasts. Rather she should try to work out the number of days that she fears she must make up from the past, and try hard to absolve herself, thenmake a certain intention for her fast: either to make up for a missed fast or to observe a naafil fast. … She should not open the door to intrusive thoughts (waswasah) and doubts and uncertainty about her acts of worship. And Allah knows best.18,302He thought that his fast had been spoiled, but he refrained from eating out of respect for the sanctity of the month, then it became clear that it had not been spoiled; does he have to make up that day?

13,185What Happens If You Break Your Fast on Purpose
• Whoever breaks the fast – even for one day – with no excuse has committed a major sin and has exposed himself to the wrath and punishment of Allah. • Whoever openly breaks the fast should be given a disciplinary punishment by the ruler, a punishment that will deter him and others like him from doing this grave act.130,610Does blood in the vagina come under the same ruling as menstrual blood even though it has not yet come out?
