Subject : Islamic Ruling on someone who Fasts the White Days with the Intention of Making up for Missed Fasts (Qada)?
Fatwa Number : 4179
Date : 04-02-2026
Classified : Voluntary Fasting
Fatwa Type : Summarized Fatawaa

Question :

If someone fasts on the White Days with the intention of making up for missed fasts (qada), will they receive the reward for both voluntary and obligatory fasting?



The Answer :

Making up missed obligatory fasts (qada) is mandatory, and the intention for qada must be specified.

If a person makes up their missed Ramadan fasts on the White Days, they must intend qada, but they may also intend to fast the White Days, and Allah willing, they will receive the reward for both.

This is similar to entering a mosque and praying an obligatory prayer, where the person also earns the reward of Tahiyyat al-Masjid (greeting the mosque) if they intend both.

● If the person missed their fasts due to a valid excuse, they may wait and fast on the White Days.

● However, if they missed the fasts without a valid excuse, they must make up the fasts immediately and should not delay them until the White Days.
