Is the fasting of make-up days, with the intention of combining the making up of missed Ramadan days and the six days of Shawwal, sufficient for making up the missed days of Ramadan?

The answer is summarized in the following points:

- The issue of combining the intention of making up for missed Ramadan (definition) fasts with fasting the six days of Shawwal is a matter of scholarly disagreement. Some scholars permit it and believe that the reward for the six days is obtained through the make-up fast, while others forbid this combination and deem the fast invalid if it combines both intentions. - The questioner's fasting with both intentions is a matter of disagreement among scholars. Some scholars validate it and believe she deserves the reward for the supererogatory fast and is absolved from the make-up fast, while others believe that the make-up fast is not absolved. - The more cautious approach is to re-fast the missed days. - Suspending the intention of making up for missed fasts on the premise that combining intentions is impermissible is not sufficient, as it negates the decisive nature of the intention. A condition for fasting an obligatory fast is to have a decisive and specific intention before dawn.
