A:
If you
broke your fast during Ramadan through anything other than having sexual intercourse, you will not be liable for Kaffarah (expiation) according to the correct scholarly opinion. In such a case, you just have to repent and make up for that day on which (Part No. 9; Page No. 222) you broke your fast. However,
if breaking your fast was through having sexual intercourse, it will entail repentance, making up for that day and Kaffarah, which is emancipating a believing slave, fasting for two successive months if the previous option is not possible, or feeding sixty poor persons if the two previous options are unavailable.If a person is to feed poor persons because emancipation and fasting are unavailable, it will be permissible to feed all the poor persons at once or divide them into batches; whichever is possible. Either way, the total number of poor persons has to be fed. However, it is impermissible to feed, as Kaffarah, one's ascendants including parents and grandparents or one's descendants including male and female children or grandchildren.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
