Kaffarah is paid violating some action like fasting, oath, ihram and unintentional murder and semi-unintentional murder.

Etymology

The root of Al-Kaffarah is Kafar (Arabic: کَفَرَ‎), means covering.[1][2] In Quran, Kaffarah as a kind of worship is the way that Allah ignores sins and covers them.[2][1] Kaffarah literally means "a trait that tends to the expiation or atonement of sin".[3] In practice, it means a determined penalty that is done expiation for sin.[3][1]

Types

Kaffarah is a special sanction to compensate for committing a sin, unintentional murder, or other offense.[4][5] According to the Quran and Hadith, Kaffarah is classified into the following categories:[3]

Unintentional murder and semi-unintentional murder

In Islamic law, a person who committed the unintentional murder must release a slave[3] or a fast of two consecutive months[6] and pay Diya unless murder's family forgive him.[7] Kaffara is the expiated treat for crimes while blood money (Diya), as the social function is paid to the relative of the dead, the definition describes the relationship between the offender and dead.[6][a]

Fasting

Someone breaking a fast, or not following it from its inception, or having sexual intercourse with their spouse during it, without a reason accredited by Sharia[3] is required to pay Kaffarah.[4][8][b] The first payment method is to release a slave, and if that is not possible, a person should fast for two successive months, or feed sixty poor people.[3][9][10]

Oaths

If someone breaks an oath,[11][12] paying Kaffarah is necessary.[c] In this case, Kaffarah could include:[13]

  1. Feeding ten poor people
  2. Dress up to them (poor people)
  3. Releasing a slave[3]
  4. Fasting three days (if the person cannot afford any of the above)

Hajj

Anyone who violates Ihram restrictions in Hajj,[14] (by having sexual intercourse, wearing a sewn dress, killing animals, etc.) must pay Kaffarah.[4][d] In this situation, Kaffarah respectively includes:[15]

  1. Three days of fasting
  2. Feeding sixty people
  3. Slaughtering a goat or even carrying out a badnah (carrying seven slaughters)

Notes

  1. ^ Qur'an, 4:92..."And never is it for a believer to kill a believer except by mistake. And whoever kills a believer by mistake - then the freeing of a believing slave and a compensation payment presented to the deceased's family [is required] unless they give [up their right as] charity. But if the deceased was from a people at war with you and he was a believer - then [only] the freeing of a believing slave; and if he was from a people with whom you have a treaty - then a compensation payment presented to his family and the freeing of a believing slave. And whoever does not find [one or cannot afford to buy one] - then [instead], a fast for two months consecutively, [seeking] acceptance of repentance from Allah. And Allah is ever Knowing and Wise"
  2. ^ Qur'an, 2:184..."[Fasting for] a limited number of days. So whoever among you is ill or on a journey [during them] - then an equal number of days [are to be made up]. And upon those who are able [to fast, but with hardship] - a ransom [as substitute] of feeding a poor person [each day]. And whoever volunteers excess - it is better for him. But to fast is best for you, if you only knew"
  3. ^ Qur'an, 66:2..."Allah has already ordained for you [Muslims] the dissolution of your oaths. And Allah is your protector, and He is the Knowing, the Wise"
  4. ^ Qur'an, 2:196..."And complete the Hajj and 'umrah for Allah. But if you are prevented, then [offer] what can be obtained with ease of sacrificial animals. And do not shave your heads until the sacrificial animal has reached its place of slaughter. And whoever among you is ill or has an ailment of the head [making shaving necessary must offer] a ransom of fasting [three days] or charity or sacrifice. And when you are secure, then whoever performs 'umrah [during the Hajj months] followed by Hajj [offers] what can be obtained with ease of sacrificial animals. And whoever cannot find [or afford such an animal] - then a fast of three days during Hajj and of seven when you have returned [home]. Those are ten complete [days]. This is for those whose family is not in the area of al-Masjid al-Haram. And fear Allah and know that Allah is severe in penalty"
  5. ^ Qur'an, 58:3-4..."And those who pronounce thihar from their wives and then [wish to] go back on what they said - then [there must be] the freeing of a slave before they touch one another. That is what you are admonished thereby; and Allah is Acquainted with what you do. (3) And he who does not find [a slave] - then a fast for two months consecutively before they touch one another; and he who is unable - then the feeding of sixty poor persons. That is for you to believe [completely] in Allah and His Messenger; and those are the limits [set by] Allah. And for the disbelievers is a painful punishment"
