Is it obligatory to make up six consecutive Ramadans, given that one is unable to inform the mother of the reason to avoid her anger, and is expiation (kaffara) due if some of the make-up days are delayed until after the next Ramadan?

The answer

Masturbation does not invalidate the fast unless ejaculation occurs. You are required to make up the days on which semen was ejaculated due to masturbation. Ignorance of masturbation being a fast-breaker is not an excuse as long as you knew of its prohibition.

Expiation () is obligatory for delaying making up the fast until after the next , which is feeding one poor person for each day, unless you were ignorant of the prohibition of delaying, in which case no expiation is due from you.

You should treat your mother kindly and gently, and promptly clear your liability.
