  (Asked by: username_0 on 2016-04-23)
  
  I was playing chess on an app against a computer, and I could make an en passant after a move from me and the computer.
  
  ```
  
     
     [FEN ""]
     1.e4 h5 2.e5 f5 3.a4 a5 4.exf6 exf5 {Ignore the weird Bishop if you go back in the game. The parser is confused.}
     
     
  ```
  
  Is this possible?
  
  Can the pawn at e5 take the pawn at f5 now after a move each (o more) from the player?

  No. You can take a pawn en passant only on the next move.
  
  See 3.7d, [here](https://www.fide.com/FIDE/handbook/LawsOfChess.pdf).
