Question:
He asks: Is it sufficient to feed ten poor people a filling meal as expiation for an oath, such as feeding them a meal of fried chicken or sandwiches, or is it required that it be rice?
Answer:
The food must be a meal that provides dinner or lunch; it must not be something other than food. It must be food that satisfies the hungry. That is what is required. There is no harm in providing them dinner or lunch, or serving them a meal at any time that they can eat. Yes.
