١ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَشْيَمَ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ الْجَعْفَرِيِّ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا الْحَسَنِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يَكُونُ عَلَيْهِ أَيَّامٌ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ أَ يَقْضِيهَا مُتَفَرِّقَةً قَالَ لا بَأْسَ بِتَفْرِيقِ قَضَاءِ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ إِنَّمَا الصِّيَامُ الَّذِي لا يُفَرَّقُ كَفَّارَةُ الظِّهَارِ وَكَفَّارَةُ الدَّمِ وَكَفَّارَةُ الْيَمِينِ.
1. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn Ahmad ibn ‘Ushaym from Sulayman ibn Ja’far al- Ja’fariy who has said the following: “This is about my question before abu al-Hassan , about a man who owes several days of fast of the month of Ramadan. Can he make Qada’ (compensatory fast) in different times. He (the Imam) said, Tt is not harmful to fast Qada’ (compensatory fast) for the fast of the month of Ramadan in different times. The fast that cannot be kept in different times is the fast as expiation because of al-Zihar, (calling one’s wife’s back as one’s mother’s back), the fast as expiation because of committing murder and the fast as expiation because of disregarding an oath and swearing up on the names of Allah.’”
