Answers: 13Subcategories: 2Expiation for Saum
Is the reward for making up fasts that were missed during the postpartum period and for other excuses like the reward for fasting in Ramadan?
7,856Do You Have to Make Up Missed Fasts in Order?
Making up missed fast in order is more prudent, so you should make up what you missed of Ramadan 1439, then what you missed of Ramadan 1440, then what you missed of Ramadan 1441. But for one who does not know the order, or has forgotten it, and has made up what he owed of fasts from previous years, there is no blame on him and his making up of the fasts is valid.9,295Which takes precedence: making up missed Ramadan fasts or fasting in expiation for breaking an oath or fulfilment of a vow?
12,891She has been fasting to make up days from Ramadan without forming the intention the night before, and she used to form the intention in the morning. What must she do now?
The fasts that your friend did to make up for missed Ramadan fasts with an intention formed during the day are not valid according to the majority of scholars. So she has to repeat the fasts of those days, but she does not have to offer expiation. This ruling to repeat her fasts applies to making up the fasts from last year, if there is still time to do that. With regard to previous years, some scholars, such as Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allah have mercy on him), favoured the view that the one who does an act of worship in a wrong manner, but he was unaware of the right way to do it, and the time for it has ended, does not have to repeat it. If your friend follows this scholarly view, then we hope that there will be no blame on her.7,257Fasting Six Days of Shawwal before Making up Missed Fasts?
If you have an excuse that keeps you from fasting the six days of Shawwal in Shawwal because you have to make up missed fasts, then you may fast six days of Shawwal in Dhul-Qa’dah211,193It is not valid to combine making up missed Ramadan fasts with fasting six days of Shawwal with one intention
95,545Can 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. Can fasts be done on her behalf?
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?
