Q: A child fell into the drainage ditch of my house and died, and later I was informed that
I had to fast two consecutive months as a Kaffarah (expiation) but my health is not good enough for me to fast these days.
My work in the Civil Status Department in my town is hard since I continuously meet with the examiners and I do my best to fulfill the needs of my house and children. Is it permissible that I feed sixty needy persons instead of fasting? May Allah reward you!
A:
If the case is as mentioned above, you are not permitted to feed sixty needy persons instead of fasting. (Part No. 21; Page No. 279) May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet, his family, and Companions.
