The Expiation for a Mother Whose Child Drowned in a Bucket of Water

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, a woman has a toddler who is crawling, and while she was occupied with household affairs, the child fell into a bucket of water and drowned and died. Is there an expiation on the mother?

Answer:
This requires verifying the actual circumstances. We cannot say whether she owes it or not; we must verify the reality of the situation. Yes.
