Question:
Honorable Shaykh, a questioner says: Regarding the dates currently available, are they sufficient as the expiation for an oath?
Answer:
Yes, they are sufficient. They are among the good things and among the most delicious foods. So, give them to those who need them. Not everyone wants dates; some people want dates and prefer them over other things. Do not give dates to the one who does not want them; give them to the one who accepts them and is pleased with them, and such people exist. Yes.
