Is it valid to make up for the

Q 2: What is the expiation incumbent on a man who deliberately breaks his fast with no excuse in Ramadan?

A: If he broke his fast intentionally through having sexual intercourse, he has to make up for the missed days and make an expiation in addition to turning to Allah for repentance. The expiation is to free a Muslim slave, and if this is not possible, he may observe Sawm (fasting) for two consecutive months, and if this is unbearable for him, he may feed sixty needy people. Women should do the same if they were not forced to break their fast. If they broke their fast by eating or drinking or suchlike, they should make up for these days and return to Allah in repentance and there is no atonement due upon him.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
