QUESTION: I am giving my expiation to an orphanage. Can I give a cup of uncooked rice and canned sardines as expiation or shirts, hijabs, and dresses if I decide to clothe 10 people, which are kids since kids are mostly the only ones who can fit in my size clothing, or give the clothes of my mother which she has agreed to give as expiation for me or does it need to be my own clothes?
