Prioritizing the Making Up of Ramadan Fasts over Voluntary Fasting

Question
Which is preferable to prioritize, making up the fasts of Ramadan or voluntary fasting?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: This depends on the person's condition. Whoever knows that they have the ability to fast the missed days and wishes to fast a voluntary fast due to its virtue may do so. However, if they fear they will not be able to fast the missed days, it is preferable to prioritize them. And God knows best.
