Question:
Asalamualaykum
I am aware that you collect donations for the kaffarah of broken oaths, but I just want to ask how much money is one required to pay for each broken oath?
Wassalaam
Answer:
Allah (swt) says: “for its expiation (a deliberate oath) feed ten poor persons, on a scale of the average of that which you feed your own families“. According to the Hanafi School it is permissible to give the value of the expiation for breaking an oath in the form of money.
