How does one who owes the expiation of feeding ten poor people feed them if he cannot find them?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : A second time. Yes, you say: She must fast for this woman from Ramadan, and she did not find any poor people. Does she give it to one person, or does she give it to a charity organization, O Shaykh?

Answer : If she has several days of Ramadan that she cannot make up continuously, meaning she is ill with an illness that is not expected to end, she must feed one poor person for each day. If she does not find poor people, she feeds one poor person and repeats the feeding for the number of days. If she has ten days, she feeds this poor person for ten days. May Allah reward you with good.
