What is the religious ruling on making up missed fasting days, which amount to approximately 35 days, given that I suffer from poor health and low weight (40 kg and 157 cm tall)? Is it permissible for me to pay expiation instead of fasting? And what is the best way to encourage my fiancé to commit to prayer, after he has abandoned it?
