Muwatta Malik #1070
Vows and Oaths
Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya
ibn Said that Sulayman ibn Yasar said, "I understood from people that
when they made the kaffara for a broken oath, they gave a mudd of
wheat according to the smaller mudd. They thought that that would
compensate for them."
Malik said, "The best of what I have
heard about the one who does kaffara for breaking his oath by clothing
people is that if he clothes men he clothes them each in one garment.
If he clothes women, he clothes them each in two garments, a long
shift and a long scarf, because that is what is satisfactory for each
of them in the prayer."
