How do I make up missed fasts from Ramadan?

Topic: Worship | Published April 5, 2026

Answer

Missed fasts from Ramadan must be made up before the next Ramadan arrives. You can make them up individually on any days throughout the year, though it's recommended to do so as soon as possible. If you were unable to fast due to pregnancy, nursing, or chronic illness, consult with an imam about fidya (compensation) options.
