Those who disliked fasting voluntarily while owing days of Ramadan

Ibrahim said: A man should not keep voluntary fasts while some make-up fasts of Ramadan are still due from him.

Al-Hasan disliked that a man keep voluntary fasts while make-up fasts of Ramadan are still due from him; however, he may fast the ten days (of Dhu al-Hijjah).

Urwah said: The likeness of one who keeps voluntary fasts while make-up fasts of Ramadan are still due from him is that of one who is busy with voluntary prayer while fearing that the obligatory prayer will be missed.

Malik bin Anas said: Sulayman bin Yasar and Sa'id bin al-Musayyib were asked about a man who keeps a voluntary fast while make-up fasts of Ramadan are still due from him, and both of them disliked it.
