What is incumbent upon a girl who reached puberty in Ramadan and broke her fast due to menstruation, then did not fast the remaining days out of ignorance, and after years repented but did not make up those days or expiate for them?

Delaying the make-up of intentionally is a sin. The missed days due to menstruation must be made up, and the days of Ramadan in which puberty occurred must be known. If the number of days is not precisely determined, then you must make up for them until your conscience is clear. Days prior to puberty do not need to be made up. In the case of intentional delay in making up the fasts, an expiation is required for each day, amounting to 750 grams of the staple food of the country. This expiation is not waived by inability to pay it. However, if the delay was due to ignorance or forgetfulness, no expiation is required.
