I was fasting as an expiation for breaking an oath. I woke up for fajr. After doing wudu, I realized that there is some more time left for Athaan. So I decided to take a short slumber as I was quite tired. But I woke up after sunrise. I prayed the fajr immediately after doing wudu again. Is my fasting for those days valid?
