Making up a fast of Ramadhaan on a Friday

Question: If a person had one fast from Ramadhaan to make up, is it permissible for him to fast on a Friday?

Response: It is permissible for a Muslim to fast on a Friday if he is making up a fast from Ramadhaan, even if it is just one day.

And with Allaah lies all the success, and may Allaah send prayers and salutations upon our Prophet Muhammad (sal-Allaahu `alayhe wa sallam) and his family and his companions.
