Do Shawal fasts have to be done immediately after Ramadan?

 𝑸𝑼𝑬𝑺𝑻𝑰𝑶𝑵❓

Should fasting the six days be done immediately after Ramadan, following the day of Eid or is it permissible to do it a few days after Eid in the month of Shawwal or not?

𝑨𝑵𝑺𝑾𝑬𝑹❗️

These days do not have to be fasted immediately after Eidul-Fitr; it is permissible to start fasting them one or more days after Eid, and they may be done consecutively or separately during the month of Shawwal, according to what is easier for a person. There is plenty of room for maneuver in this matter, and this is not obligatory, it is Sunnah. And Allah is the Source of strength. May Allah bless our Prophet Muḥammad and his Family and Companions and grant them peace.’"
