I wasnt aware that ramadan fasts missed due to menstruation had to be
made up before nafl ones and I started keeping some nafl ones so is it
possiblefor me to change the intention of the previousnafl ones I have
kept or to change the intention of fast during the day? Because the
one I kept today for example I started off with the intention of
keeping a nafl fast but can I now change this to the intention of
making up the ones I missed in ramadan?
Praise be to Allah.
Firstly:
It is not valid to change the intention of observing the voluntary
fast that one has completed in order to make it a fast to make up for
a day of Ramadanwhich one did not fast, because when making up missed
fasts, it is essential to form the intention the night before, because
making up missed fasts comes under the same ruling asthe original
fast. The Prophet )blessings and peace of Allah be upon him( said:
"Whoever does not intend to fast before dawn, his fast does not
count." Narrated by at-Tirmidhi, 730; classed as saheeh byal-Albaani
in Saheeh at-Tirmidhi. At-Tirmidhi said after quoting it: What is
meant, according to the scholars, is that the fast does not count for
the one who did not form the intention to fast before dawn broke in
Ramadan or when making up a missed Ramadan fast or when fasting in
fulfilment of a vow. If he did not form the intention to fast from the
night before, then it does not count. As for voluntary fasts, it is
permissible for him to form the intention after dawn breaks. This is
the view of ash-Shaafa'i, Ahmad and Ishaaq. End quote.
an-Nawawi )may Allah have mercy on him( said:
A Ramadan fast or making up a fast or an expiatory fast or a fast
offered as fidyat al-Hajj )compensation for mistakes in Hajj( or other
obligatory fasts are not valid if the intention is made duringthe day.
There is no difference of opinion onthis matter.
End quote from al-Majmoo', 6/289
See: al-Mughni by Ibn Qudaamah, 3/26
That is because changing the intention after finishing an act of
worship does not have any impact.
As-Suyooti )may Allah have mercy on him( said in al-Ashbaah
wa'n-Nazaa'ir, p. 37:
If a person intends to end his prayer after completing it, that does
not render it invalid, according to scholarly consensus. The same
applies to all other acts of worship. End quote.
So the fast that was done with the intention of observing a voluntary
fast cannot count as a fast observed to make up for )a missed
obligatory fast(.
And because if he started observing it as a voluntary fast, then he
decided during the day to change it into a fast observed to make up
for)a missed obligatory fast(, then he would have fasted part of that
obligatory day on the basis that it was voluntary, so it cannot make
up for an obligatory fast, because actions are but by intentions, and
he fastedpart of the day with the intention of it being voluntary.
And because he changedthe intention from a general fast to a specific
fast, and that is not valid.
And Allah knows best.
For more information, see the answer to question no. 39689
But we should point out to you that observing naafil fasts is not
disallowed for the one who still has to make up Ramadan fasts, as
mentioned in the question. Rather the correct opinion is that if a
person wants to observe a voluntary fast when he owes an obligatory
fast, such as making up missed days from Ramadan and the like, his
fast is valid so long as he still has enough time to make upwhat he
owes before the next Ramadan begins. But what is not allowed is to
fast the six days of Shawwaal before making up what he owes from
Ramadan. However this is a matter concerning which the scholars
differed.

*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -*
-
Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-
