It is not stipulated that fasts be observed consecutively for one who cannot find a hadiy
Question: 109285
Answer
Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.
It is permissible for the seven days mentioned in the verse (interpretation of the meaning): “and seven days after his return (to his home)” [al-Baqarah 2:196] to be observed either consecutively or separately.
And Allah is the source of strength; may Allah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and Companions. End quote.
