9. Through the same chain of narrators as that of the previous Hadith, the following is narrated
“’Amir al-Mu’minin, Ali (a.s.), was asked, ‘Can the Kaffarah (expiation) because of an oath be fed to the destitute from the flesh of the offering animals for al-Hajj?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘No, because it is sacrifice for Allah.’”
9- وَبِإِسْنَادِهِ قَالَ
سُئِلَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) هَلْ يُطْعَمُ الْمَسَاكِينُ فِي كَفَّارَةِ الْيَمِينِ لُحُومَ الأضَاحِيِّ فَقَالَ لا لأنَّهُ قُرْبَانٌ للهِ.
