What is the ruling on my sister making up the days she missed in Ramadan due to pregnancy, breastfeeding, and illness, and does she owe expiation?
Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
The sister is obligated to make up for the missed fast. If the delay in making up the fast until the next Ramadan was due to a valid excuse, then she is only required to make it up. However, if it was without a valid excuse, then she must repent to Allah Almighty and pay an expiation for each day she delayed making up. She is not required to make up the days consecutively; rather, she may make them up intermittently.
