Did not make up the days from previous Ramadhaan

Did not make up the days from previous Ramadhaan
*Please appropriately reference this fatwa to: www.fatwa-online.com, thankyou!*
Question: Concerning the one who had days to make up from the previous Ramadhaan and had not done so when the following Ramadhaan arrived, is he a sinner and does he have to make an expiation or not?

Response: Anyone who has days to make up from the (previous) Ramadhaan then he has to make them up before (the arrival of) the next Ramadhaan. It is permissible for him to delay his fast until Sha'baan (the 8th month, just before Ramadhaan). However, if the following Ramadhaan arrives and he still has not made up the (missed) days without (a valid) reason, then he has committed a sin. So now he has to make up those days along with feeding a poor person for every day (he has to make up) as this is what the group of companions of the Prophet (sal-Allaahu `alayhe wa sallam) had ruled with. The amount of food required would be half a saa'a for every day from that which is the norm in the country and is to be given to a number of people or, even, just one person. As for he who had a valid excuse for delaying in making up the fasts, because of illness or travel then he has to make up the days missed only and he does not have to feed any poor people, for the general statement of Allaah (subhaanahu wa ta'aala): {and whoever is ill or on a journey, the same number (of days which one did not fast must be made up) from other days} [Soorah al-Baqarah, Aayah 185].
And Allaah (subhaanahu wa ta'aala) is the Provider of Success.

155- Encouraging Muslims to observe Sawm on the Day of `Ashura'

155- Encouraging Muslims to observe Sawm on the Day of `Ashura' 

All praise be to Allah Alone and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and upon his family, companions, and whoever follows his teachings.
It is authentically reported that the Prophet (peace be upon him) used to observe Sawm (Fast) on the Day of `Ashura’ (10th of Muharram) and he would encourage people to do so. This is because on that Day Allah (Exalted be He) rescued Moses (Musa, peace be upon him) and his people and destroyed Fir`aun (Pharaoh) and his people. Therefore, it is Mustahab (desirable) for every male and female Muslim to observe Sawm on that Day i.e. the 10th day of Muharram, to express their gratitude to Allah (Glorified and Exalted be He). In addition, it is Mustahab to observe Sawm on the day preceding `Ashura' or on the succeeding day in order to differ from the Jews with regard to the way of observing this Sawm. However, a person may observe Sawm for the three days altogether i.e. The ninth, the tenth, and the eleventh of Muharram for it is reported that the Prophet (peace be upon him) stated: Differ from the Jews and observe Sawm for one day before `Ashura' and one day after it. According to another narration: Observe Sawm for a day before (the Day of `Ashura') or after it. It is also authentically reported that when the Prophet (peace be upon him) was asked about observing Sawm on the Day of `Ashura', he (peace be upon him) said: Allah expiates by it the sins of the
(Part No. 15; Page No. 398)
past year.
 There are many other Hadith encouraging Muslims to observe Sawm on the Day of `Ashura'. The calendar shows that Saturday will be the 30th of Dhul-Hijjah of this current year 1416 A.H. Nevertheless, sighting the new moon may confirm this or prove it is the first of Muharram 1417 A.H. And that Dhul-Hijjah of the year 1416 A. H. Is only 29 days. Accordingly, it is better for Muslims this year to observe Sawm on Monday and Tuesday to be on the safe side as Sunday may be the 9th of Muharram if Dhul-Hijjah is only 29 days, or the 8th if Dhul-Hijjah is 30 days. However, observing Sawm on Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday is good as doing so is a further precaution to guarantee applying the Sunnah (a commendable act) and because observing Sawm on three days of each month is a well-established Sunnah as explained previously. Finally, I ask Allah to guide us and all Muslims to all that pleases Him and to make us all amongst those who hasten to all goodness. Verily, Allah is the Most Generous, the Most Bountiful. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions!

168- Ruling on fasting in Muharram, Sha‘ban and the Ten Days of Dhul-Hijjah

Q: What is the religious ruling on observing Sawm (Fasting) on the last Ten Days of Dhul-Hijjah and the whole of the months of Muharram and Sha‘ban? Answer us, may Allah confer His Blessings upon you! 
A: Bismillah [In the Name of Allah] and all praise is due to Him. It is Mashru‘ (Islamically permissible) to fast in the month of Muharram and Sha‘ban. As for the last Ten Days of Dhul-Hijjah, there is no evidence concerning fasting on them; but there is nothing wrong with fasting on them without having the belief that they have certain specialty or fasting is recommended on them in particular.
(Part No. 15; Page No. 416)
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said concerning the month of Muharram: The best Sawm after Ramadan, is the Month of Allah: Muharram. Therefore, it is recommendable to fast the whole of Muharram and it is Sunnah (supererogatory act of worship following the example of the Prophet) to fast on the ninth, the tenth and the eleventh of it.
Similarly, it is reported that the Prophet (peace be upon him) used to fast the entire of Sha‘ban or most of it as authentically reported in the Hadith of `Aishah and Um Salamah (may Allah be pleased with both of them).
With regard to fasting the Ten Days of Dhul-Hijjah, first of all what is meant is the first nine days, as the Day of ‘Eid is not allowable to fast on, but it is recommendable to fast on these nine days for it brings a great reward according to the general meaning of the Hadith of the Prophet (peace be upon him), 'There are no days in which righteous deeds are more beloved to Allah than these ten days.' They asked, 'Not even Jihad (fighting/striving) in the Cause of Allah?' He (peace be upon him) said, 'Not even Jihad in the Cause of Allah, except for a man who goes out (for Jihad) with his self and his wealth, and comes back with nothing of that.' There are Hadiths that indicate that the Prophet (peace be upon him) used to fast on these days and others that show that he (peace be upon him) did not fast on them, but nothing has been authentically reported that determines his fasting or not fasting them.

Sawm on the Day of ‘Ashura’

Fatwa no. 10962
Q: What is obligatory for a Muslim to do on the Day of ‘Ashura’ (10th of Muharram)? Should they pay Zakat-ul-Fitr (obligatory charity paid before the Festival of Breaking the Fast) on that day?
A: It is prescribed for a Muslim to observe Sawm (Fasting) on the Day of ‘Ashura’, as it was authentically reported that the Prophet (peace be upon him) ordered his Sahabah (Companions) to observe Sawm on that day. However, when the Sawm of Ramadan was enjoined, it became permissible either to fast or not to fast on the Day of ‘Ashura’. No Zakat-ul-Fitr is to be paid on the Day of ‘Ashura’ as due on ‘Eid-ul-Fitr (the Festival of Breaking the Fast) after the month of Ramadan.
May Allah grant us success! May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions!
