Niat puasa qadha Ramadhan yang tertinggal bersama puasa enam. Bolehkah di samping puasa qadha kita puasa juga sunat puasa enam?
Can a missed Ramadan fast be made up together with the six voluntary fasts of Syawal?
Short answer
Fasting six days in the month of Syawal is recommended. A person who makes up missed Ramadan fasts during Syawal is relieved of the debt and also obtains the reward of the Syawal fast simply by intending the qadha fast.

Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Jika seseorang itu mengqadha puasanya yang ketinggalan dalam bulan syawal maka ia terlepas dari hutang puasanya yang tertinggal dan dapat sunat puasa dalam bulan Syawal dengan semata ia berniat qadha
