Q: Do the kaffarahs for those who intentionally break their fast differ from the
kaffarahs for the ill?
A: Yes they do; both in amount and in those who ought to be provided for.
Concerning the kaffarahs for those who intentionally break their fast, one must
either satiate 60 needy persons for each missed fast (or give each person ¾ kg
of food) or observe two months of fasting. However, with the kaffarahs for the
ill, assuming the illness were to extend until the following month of Ramadan,
one must give ¾ kg of food to a needy person for every missed fast. Regarding
the kaffarahs for those who intentionally break their fast, assuming one does
have access to 60 needy persons, one oughtn’t to provide each one with more than
¾ kg; this matter isn’t necessary in relation to kaffarahs for the ill.
