What is the ruling on a pregnant woman in her eighth month making up five days from the previous Ramadan?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Whoever breaks their fast in must make up for it before the next Ramadan, unless their excuse persists. If they were able to make up the fasts but did not do so until the second Ramadan began, then they are sinful and must make up the fasts after the second Ramadan, along with expiation: feeding one poor person for each day (approximately 750 grams). If the wife is able to make up the fasts now, she must do so. Otherwise, she must make them up after Ramadan, along with feeding one poor person for each day, if she was able to make them up but did not.
