Giving kaffarah of an oath to one person
Question
The kafarah for an oath is to feed ten deserving poor men or pay kafarah to ten poor people. Can one pay the amount of ten people to just one poor person as this would not involve finding ten people.
Answer
No.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
