Question:
salam alakum, If someone commits a haram act during ramadan when fasting what is the kaffarah according to Sayed Sistani? I have read paying for 60 poor people to be fed or free slave or 60 days of fasting. He does not state whether it is to do them all or one of them? Can you please clarify? also how much is Kaffarh in English money per day for 60 people? May allah help us in this world and next. Thank you
Answer:
The Kaffara of breaking the fast deliberately during any day the month of R=
amadhan is either feeding a slave, or fasting two months or feeding sixty po=
or persons. This Kaffara if the fast was broken with lawful food or drink or=
any act which is not originally forbidden, but if the fast was broken by an=
act which is originally forbidden like drinking alcohol, committing fornica=
tion or masturbation etc, then the Kaffara becomes all the three together wh=
ich is called then Kaffaratul Jam'.
Feeding sixty poor person is by giving each of them one meal or at least thr=
ee quarter of Kilogram of any food like rice, dates, wheat etc. the approxim=
ate cost can be around one pound per person if the feeding is in poor countr=
ies like India, Bangladesh or Afghanistan.

Question:
Assalamu Alaikum wa rahmatullah. Greetings to you sir. My first question is; what is the stance of our ulama on 'Sitta Shawwal' fasting? Does it have any basis? Should we observe it? Second question: Please where can I get a full information on salaah. Thanks.
Answer:
1. It is not good to fast immediately after the day of Eid, because there
are authentic Hadeeths forbidding fasting the first three days of Shawwaal.
Even many Sunni scholars object on the narration of the fasting of first
six days of Shawaal after Eid.
We do not have any authentic Hadeeths suggesting fasting six days
immediately after Eidul Fitr.
2. This is a link regarding how to pray Salaah which might be useful:
