Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: The author (may Allah have mercy on him) said, "And whoever does not find but one poor person, he returns to him for ten days." He says: If he provides the poor person with breakfast, lunch, and dinner, does that count as three days?
Answer:
One day, no. The repetition within one day is sufficient, but if he repeats it over days, there is no harm. Yes.
