Am I obligated to offer expiation if I did something unconsciously after being told, "By Allah, I implore you to do that"?
A Muslim is prohibited from asking by the Face of Allah, and from refusing one who asks by Allah, unless they are asking for something sinful. So, whoever asks by the Face of Allah should be given. If what was done was permissible in response to one who asked by Allah, then it is a good deed for complying with the ; otherwise, it is a wrongdoing that necessitates repentance. If the action was unintentional, then there is no blame, for the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said: "Indeed, Allah has forgiven my ummah for unintentional mistakes, forgetfulness, and what they are forced to do." There is no expiation if the action was unintentional.
