The Priority Between Zakat al-Fitr and Expiation for an Oath

Question
Which is more preferable, giving money as charity, or giving it as expiation for an oath?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: The expiation for an oath is obligatory, and its amount is to feed ten needy people. As for charity, it is voluntary, and there is no specific value for it. It is preferable to fulfill the obligation, which is the expiation for the oath, and God knows best.
