Question:
This questioner says: She has an oath expiation due to her, and she has not fed anyone yet, and she has no money with which to expiate. Should she fast three days, or is it permissible for my husband to expiate on her behalf from his money?
Answer:
If the husband expiates on her behalf as a voluntary act, there is no harm in it, and it suffices, if Allah wills. If he does not expiate on her behalf, then fast three days. Yes.
