Kaffarah is a charitable compensation made by Muslims for intentionally breaking any fasts during the holy month of Ramadan, without a valid reason.

How much is Kaffarah for Ramadan 2023?

To atone for the intentionally broken fast, you must fast continuously for 60 days. However, if you are unable to do that, then you have to feed 60 poor people at a rate of £5 per person (the cost of an average meal in the UK). As a result, this amounts to £300 for each intentionally missed/broken fast.

However, if you have a valid reason to miss/break your fast and are unable to make up the fast at any other time in the future, you must pay Fidyah.

Kaffarah for breaking a promise in Islam

Paying a kaffarah is also necessary for breaking a promise/oath. Therefore, for redemption of a broken oath, you must ask Allah for forgiveness, and pay the amount equivalent to feeding 10 people at a rate of £5 per person (the cost of an average meal in the UK). As a result, this amounts to £50 for each broken promise.
