مَنْ عَجَزَ عَنِ الْكَفَّارَةِ الَّتِي تَجِبُ عَلَيْهِ صَوْمٍ أَوْ عِتْقٍ أَوْ صَدَقَةٍ فِي يَمِينٍ أَوْ نَذْرٍ أَوْ قَتْلٍ أَوْ غَيْرِ ذَلِكَ مِمَّا يَجِبُ عَلَى صَاحِبِهِ فِيهِ الْكَفَّارَةُ فَالِاسْتِغْفَارُ لَهُ كَفَّارَةٌ مَا خَلَا يَمِينَ الظِّهَارِ فَإِنَّهُ إِذَا لَمْ يَجِدْ مَا يُكَفِّرُ حَرُمَ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يُجَامِعَهَا وَ فُرِّقَ بَيْنَهُمَا إِلَّا أَنْ تَرْضَى الْمَرْأَةُ أَنْ تَكُونَ مَعَهُ وَ لَا يُجَامِعَهَا .


Translation

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from one of his companions, from Aasim Bin Humeyd, from Abu Baseer, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘The one who is frustrated from (paying the) expiation which is Obligated upon him, be it a Fast, or emancipating (librating), or a charity with regards to an oath, or a vow, or killing, or other than that from what it Obligated upon its perpetrator the expiation in it, so there is no seeking of Forgiveness is an expiation for him, except for an oath of the <span class="iTxt">Zihaar</span>. So if he, when he does not find what he expiates with, it is Prohibited upon him that he copulates with her, and there would be separation between the two of them, except if the woman is pleased that there be togetherness between him and her’.
