Should a woman start with making up missed fasts from Ramadaan or with the six days of Shawwaal?

What should a woman dofirst: fast the six recommended days of Shawwal
( Alayam Alsetta Albeed) or fast equivalent to the days she missed in
Ramadan due to her monthly period?
Praise be to Allaah.
If she wants to earn the reward mentioned in the hadeeth of the
Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), "Whoever fasts
Ramadaanthen follows it with six days of Shawwaal, it will be as if he
fasted for a lifetime" (reported by Muslim, no. 1984), then she should
complete her Ramadaan fasts first, thenfollow it with six days of
Shawwaal, so that the hadeeth with be applicable to her too, and she
will gain the reward mentioned in it.
As regards the matter of permissibility, it is permissible for her to
delay making up her Ramadaan fasts, provided that she makes them up
before the next Ramadaan comes along./
