Expiation for an oath by feeding, not by money

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. The questioner asks: Is it sufficient to give one hundred riyals in charity as the expiation for an oath?

Answer:
Yes. Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) explicitly stated feeding, feeding ten poor people. How does the verse extend to giving dirhams in charity? Yes.
