Kaffarah for missed fast


If someone intentionally misses or breaks a fast with no valid reason then they must compensate for this in one of two ways. They must either fast for 60 days or, if they are unable to do so, they should feed 60 poor people with two meals for one day. This practice is known as Kaffarah and is calculated according to the average cost of two meals a day.

Kaffarah for breaking an oath


Paying Kaffarah is also necessary for breaking a promise/oath. Therefore, for redemption of a broken oath, you must ask Allah for forgiveness, and pay the amount equivalent to feeding 10 people a cooked meal (at the rate of a cost of a meal in the UK/USA).
