Does financial expiation suffice for an oath paid through another person’s account, and is it valid to fast the three days as expiation despite doubt about financial ability at the time it becomes due? What are the consequences of saying "By God" or similar phrases without the intention of swearing an oath, and then stopping? Is the thick white fluid that emerged after finishing studying considered semen, and what is meant by "desire" when it exits, and what is the ruling on missed prayers if it was semen?
The basic forms of expiation are feeding, clothing, or emancipating a slave; otherwise, it is fasting. Paying the value of expiation in cash is permissible according to some scholars. It is permissible to pay through your mother's account or another person's account to a trusted charity. If the money is from your own funds or gifted to you by your mother, there is no harm in transferring it through your mother's account. However, taking it without her knowledge is impermissible, and it necessitates repentance and returning the money unless your mother forgives it. Fasting as an expiation for an oath is sufficient if money is not available at that time, because the default is its unavailability, and no attention should be paid to doubt after completing an act of worship. An oath whose occurrence is doubted does not require expiation, because the default is the absolution of one's responsibility, and similarly for a 'laghw' (unintentional) oath. is not required for what exits your body, because ghusl is only required for semen that exits with pleasure. However, if it exits without pleasure, it only necessitates wudu. Sexual pleasure is the sensual delight experienced upon the emission of semen. A woman's semen is typically thin and yellow, its odor resembles the spathe of a date palm, and it is emitted with pleasure followed by relaxation. Even if it is assumed to be semen and exits without pleasure, only wudu is required.
