Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on giving a group of expiations to ten poor people, or to a family consisting of ten individuals?
Answer:
It is obligatory to adhere to the number mentioned by Allah. Feeding ten poor people is not the same as feeding sixty poor people. It is obligatory to match the number of poor people, and it is not permissible to give it all to one poor person; only one would be fulfilled, and the rest would remain upon you. It is necessary to adhere to the number of poor people mentioned by Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He.
