What is the ruling on someone who broke their fast for three days in Ramadan due to a legitimate Shar'i excuse, then made up two days in Sha'ban, and then their menstrual period began on the third day, preventing them from making it up until after Ramadan? Is expiation (kaffarah) obligatory for her, even though she has repented? If it is obligatory, what is the expiation, and is it permissible for her parents to pay it on her behalf?
