Is feeding the fasting people counted as the expiation of feeding?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Majid from Asir, please go ahead, Majid. Peace be upon you, and Allah's mercy and blessings. And upon you be peace. Raise your voice a little, Majid, please. My question, may Allah reward you with good, regarding the expiation: can I fulfill the expiation by feeding the fasting person? What do you mean? He has an expiation of feeding the poor; is it possible for him to count it as breaking the fast of the fasting person? He says: He has an expiation, O Shaykh; does he count it as part of feeding the fasting person?

Answer:
The expiation is paid to those in need; it is paid to the poor and the needy, and he gives it to them, and they dispose of it as they wish. Yes.
