The Number of Meals Required for the Expiation of an Oath
In feeding as an expiation for an oath, is it sufficient in our time to provide two filling meals, or is it necessary to provide three meals due to the common practice of people eating three meals in our time?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: two satisfying meals are sufficient; because this is the prescribed amount according to Sharia, and God knows best.
