How do Muslims make up for missed fasting days during Ramadan?

During Ramadan, Muslims fast from sunrise to sunset for a month as a form of worship. However, there may be times when someone is unable to fast due to illness, travel, or other reasons. In such cases, it is necessary to make up for the missed fasting days later.

To make up for missed fasting days during Ramadan, Muslims should fast for the same number of days at a later time, preferably before the next Ramadan. This is called 'Qada' fasting. For example, if someone missed three days of fasting during Ramadan, they would need to fast for three additional days outside of Ramadan to make up for the missed days.

It's important to note that making up missed fasting days is a religious obligation in Islam, and Muslims should make sure to fulfill this obligation as soon as possible. However, for those who are unable to fast due to health reasons or other valid excuses, there are alternative ways of making up for the missed days, such as feeding a needy person for each missed day of fasting.
