The later Shafi'i jurists are of the view that whoever invalidates the fast of the last day (the 31st) of his fasting owes neither a make-up fast nor expiation, because fasting on this day is not obligatory except by way of coincidence (muwafaqah). However, if the invalidated day was the 30th, then both make-up and expiation are required.
