A person engaged in masturbation during the day in Ramadan and is certain it does not break the fast because they researched the ruling and followed a fatwa from a Sunni website. They are unsure if they did it for two or three days and have fasted for two days. What should they do?

Peace be upon you and God's mercy and blessings.
Ayatollah Khamenei and Ayatollah Sistani (may God protect them):
In the case of uncertainty about the number of days you need to make up, you can assume the minimum. In your situation, you can suffice with two days.
In any case, you can refer to Question 12708 as it may indicate that you do not have to make up any days.
May you be successful in all good.
