As long as the person has fasted the entire last without harm, it is incumbent upon him to make up for the Ramadans he missed previously whenever it is easy for him, and he does not switch to feeding [the poor]. He is not required to make up the fasts consecutively, and he may separate them. He is not required to pay expiation for delaying the making up of those Ramadans as long as he has a valid excuse due to illness.
