LessonsKitab al-Sawm: Illness, Travel, Make-up Fasts and Delayed QaḍāʾQuiz

وَإِنْ أَخَّرَهُ حَتَّى دَخَلَ رَمَضَانٌ آخَرُ: صَامَ رَمَضَانَ الثَّانِيَ، وَقَضَى الْأَوَّلَ بَعْدَهُ، وَلَا فِدْيَةَ عَلَيْهِ.
Translation: If make-up is delayed until another Ramadan arrives, one fasts that second Ramadan, then makes up the first afterward; no fidyah is due for that delay.

Two separate obligations are involved: missed days from an earlier Ramadan and the presently arriving Ramadan. The text prioritizes fasting the current Ramadan, then completing the previous make-up days afterward.

“No fidyah upon him” is an important Hanafi point: arrival of another Ramadan alone does not create an additional feeding payment merely because earlier make-up was delayed.
