Fasting ‘Ashoora’ for one who still owes days from Ramadaan

I still have days to make up for Ramadaan and I want to fast
'Ashoora'. Is it permissible for me to fast 'Ashoora before I have
made up the fasts I owe? Can I fast 'Ashoora'and the eleventh of
Muharram with the intention of making up the Ramadaan fasts, and will
I get the reward for fasting 'Ashoora'?.
Praise be to Allaah.
Firstly:
You should not observe voluntary fasts when you still owe one or more
days from Ramadaan, rather you should start with the fasts that you
owe from Ramadaan, and then observe voluntary fasts.
Secondly:
If you fast the tenth and eleventh of Muharram with the intention of
making up days that youowe from Ramadaan, that is permissible and will
make up for two of the days that you owe. The Prophet (peace and
blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, "Actions are judged but by
intentions, and every person will have but thatwhich he intended."
Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa'imah, 11/401
We hope that you will have the reward for making up the missed fast
and the reward for fasting that day.
Fataawa Manaar al-Islam, by Shaykh Muhammad ibn 'Uthaymeen (may Allaah
have mercy on him), 2/358.
