ما قالوا في تفريق رمضانMaking Up Missed Ramadan Fasts Separately
Hadith 9372
٩٣٧٢ - حدثنا أبو الأحوص عن (أبي) (١) إسحاق عن مجاهد في الرجل يكون عليه صوم من رمضان فيفرق (صيامه) (٢) أو يصله، قال: إن اللَّه أراد بعباده اليسر، فلينظر أيسر ذلك عليه إن شاء وصله وإن شاء (فرق) (٣).
Hazrat Mujahid was asked that if a person has missed fasts of Ramadan, should he observe them consecutively or can he keep them separately? He replied: Allah Almighty desires ease for His servants. He may act upon whichever method he finds easier; if keeping them together is easier, then he should do so, and if keeping them separately is easier, then he should do so.
