Summary
The fatwa states that the six voluntary fasts of Shawwal may be combined with qada’ fasting. However, it is more virtuous to keep the two separate, fasting qada’ on its own and the voluntary fasts on their own.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Boleh dicampurkan antara puasa sunat enam hari dibulan Syawal dengan puasa qada'.
