Scholars have differed concerning one who breaks a specific votive fast due to an excuse. Some have mandated both making up the fast (qada') and offering expiation () due to the loss of specification, while others have not mandated expiation due to the excuse. The preponderant view is the obligation to make up the fast, and it is more cautious to offer expiation due to the loss of specification.
