Summary
Malik was asked about a man who became Muslim on the last day of Ramadan: must he make up the whole of Ramadan, or only the day on which he became Muslim? He said: he does not make up what has passed; he begins fasting from now on, though it is more beloved to him that he make up the day he became Muslim at some point. The editor notes that Abu Musab and Suwayd transmitted this ruling from Malik in different wordings (826). 1
