Salaam everyone! I've got a question about making up for fasts I missed.

Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh! Eid Mubarak to all of you, and I hope you had a blessed and spiritually uplifting Ramadan. So, here's my situation-when I was much younger, I deliberately broke one of my Ramadan fasts by eating a grape. I honestly can’t remember exactly how old I was at the time, but I know I was really young, and I’m not sure if I had even reached puberty yet. Aside from that, I do have other fasts to make up for unintentional breaks, but this is the only instance I can think of where it was on purpose. My question is, do I need to do the 60 consecutive days of fasting to make up for it? I’ve heard that ruling only applies if someone is past the age of maturity, and I’m just not certain if I was. Honestly, I’m a bit confused about what I should do next.

Ask a scholar, they'll know best! Don't stress too much.

I've heard the same thing about puberty being the cutoff. May Allah make it easy for you!

If you weren't baligh yet, maybe you don't need the 60 days? But it's always best to ask a local imam for guidance, sis. Better safe than sorry!

If you were a child and didn't understand, the ruling might be different. Definitely seek proper advice, insha'Allah you'll find clarity!

A grape? That's so relatable, lol. May Allah accept your efforts to make it right.

I did the 60 days for something similar even though I was young-it gave me peace of mind. Totally worth it.
