Chapter on Expiation for Intentionally Breaking the Fast of a Day from the Month of Ramadan
سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ هَاشِمٍ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ مَرَّارٍ وَ عَبْدِ اَلْجَبَّارِ بْنِ مُبَارَكٍ عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اَلرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ مُسْكَانَ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ وَ سَمَاعَةَ بْنِ مِهْرَانَ قَالاَ: سَأَلْنَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَكُونُ عَلَيْهِ صِيَامُ شَهْرَيْنِ مُتَتَابِعَيْنِ فَلَمْ يَقْدِرْ عَلَى اَلصِّيَامِ وَ لَمْ يَقْدِرْ عَلَى اَلْعِتْقِ وَ لَمْ يَقْدِرْ عَلَى اَلصَّدَقَةِ قَالَ» فَلْيَصُمْ ثَمَانِيَةَ عَشَرَ يَوْماً عَنْ كُلِّ عَشَرَةِ مَسَاكِينَ ثَلاَثَةَ أَيَّامٍ«.
Sa’ad ibn Abdullah, from Ibrahim ibn Hashim, from Ismail ibn Marrar and Abd al-Jabbar ibn Mubarak, from Yunus ibn Abd al-Rahman, from Abdullah ibn Muskan, from Abu Basir and Samaah ibn Mihran, who both said:
We (narrators) asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, about ‘a man upon whom there is the fasting of two consecutive months, but he is not able to fast, and he is not able to free a slave, and he is not able to give charity.’ Imam عليه السلام said: “Then let him fast eighteen days, for every ten needy persons, three days.”
