The Expiation for an Oath Regarding Preventing a Daughter from Attending School

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I swore that my daughter would not go to school, then I realized that it was in her interest to attend, and I allowed her to go afterward. What is the ruling?

Answer:
Your oath requires feeding ten poor people. You feed them dinner, not breakfast. If you give them at half the time of prayer, each person receives one and a half kilograms of dates, rice, or wheat as expiation for your oath. Yes.
