What is the ruling on a woman's fasting on days when she did not perform ghusl after her menstrual period, and should she make up those days or offer expiation for them?

Purity is not a condition for the validity of fasting, but it is a condition for the validity of prayer. The questioner's fast is valid, but she must repeat the prayers she performed without ritual purity.
