The Amount of Kaffarah by the Kilogram

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the amount of the kaffarah in kilograms? The kaffarah varies; some require feeding sixty poor people, some require feeding ten poor people, and some require feeding six poor people.

Answer:
The amount given to a poor person in kaffarahs, according to the view of a group of scholars, is a mudd, which is a quarter of a sa'. However, the current fatwa is that it is half a sa', meaning one and a half kilograms. Yes.
