Hadith.4331 - Abd al-Wahid ibn Muhammad ibn Abdus al-Naysaburi, may Allah (swt) be pleased with him, narrated from Ali ibn Muhammad ibn Qutaybah, from Hamdan ibn Sulayman, from Abd al-Salam ibn Salih al-Harawi, who said
I asked Imam Ali ibn Musa Ar-Ridha (as): "O son of the Messenger of Allah (swt), it has been narrated to us from your forefathers (peace be upon them) that for someone who has intercourse or breaks their fast in the month of Ramadan, there are three expiations. It has also been narrated from them (peace be upon them) that there is only one expiation. Which of the two narrations should we follow?" Imam (as) said: "Both are correct. If a person has intercourse unlawfully or breaks their fast by consuming something unlawful during the month of Ramadan, then three expiations are required, freeing a slave, fasting for two consecutive months, and feeding sixty needy people. In addition, the person must make up the fast for that day. However, if the person had lawful intercourse or broke their fast by consuming something lawful, then only one expiation is required, along with making up the fast for that day. And if the person did so out of forgetfulness, then nothing is required of him."
4331 - وَ رَوَى عَبْدُ اَلْوَاحِدِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُبْدُوسٍ اَلنَّيْسَابُورِيُّ رَضِيَ اَللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ قُتَيْبَةَ عَنْ حَمْدَانَ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَلسَّلاَمِ بْنِ صَالِحٍ اَلْهَرَوِيِّ قَالَ
قُلْتُ لِلرِّضَا عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ يَا اِبْنَ رَسُولِ اَللَّهِ قَدْ رُوِيَ لَنَا عَنْ آبَائِكَ عَلَيْهِمُ اَلسَّلاَمُ "فِيمَنْ جَامَعَ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ أَوْ أَفْطَرَ فِيهِ ثَلاَثُ كَفَّارَاتٍ" وَ رُوِيَ عَنْهُمْ عَلَيْهِمُ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَيْضاً "كَفَّارَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ" فَبِأَيِّ اَلْخَبَرَيْنِ نَأْخُذُ فَقَالَ "بِهِمَا جَمِيعاً مَتَى جَامَعَ اَلرَّجُلُ حَرَاماً أَوْ أَفْطَرَ عَلَى حَرَامٍ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ فَعَلَيْهِ ثَلاَثُ كَفَّارَاتٍ عِتْقُ رَقَبَةٍ وَ صِيَامُ شَهْرَيْنِ مُتَتَابِعَيْنِ وَ إِطْعَامُ سِتِّينَ مِسْكِيناً وَ قَضَاءُ ذَلِكَ اَلْيَوْمِ وَ إِنْ كَانَ نَكَحَ حَلاَلاً أَوْ أَفْطَرَ عَلَى حَلاَلٍ فَعَلَيْهِ كَفَّارَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ وَ قَضَاءُ ذَلِكَ اَلْيَوْمِ وَ إِنْ كَانَ نَاسِياً فَلاَ شَيْءَ عَلَيْهِ".
