The ruling on fasting as expiation for a broken oath for one who needs the money he has
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I owe the expiation for a broken oath, but I am in great need of the money I have. Is it obligatory for me to pay the expiation, or is fasting alone sufficient?
Answer:
Fasting is sufficient. Whoever does not find [the means to pay] fasts for three days. So if you are unable to pay the expiation with money, you fast for three days. Yes.
