Is it permissible to pay two or more expiations to the same poor people at different times?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The expiation for an oath is feeding ten poor people, or clothing them, or freeing a slave. If one cannot find [any of these], then it is fasting for three days. It is permissible to feed or clothe the same poor people for different expiations, whether on consecutive or non-consecutive days, as long as they meet the description of being poor.
