Who are the poor people for whom expiation is obligatory?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: Who are the poor people for whom expiation is obligatory?

Answer:
The poor person (miskin) is the one who finds some sufficiency. He does not have complete sufficiency; this is called the poor person (miskin). The needy person (faqir) is the one who finds nothing, so the needy person (faqir) is in greater need than the poor person (miskin).
