Question: What is the Islamic law about someone who breaks his fast thinking it is not obligatory on him to fast? Answer: If he was certain that fasting is not obligatory on him, there is no kaffarah on him nor is any fidya payable. However, Qadha is obligatory on him but if he was not certain about fasting not being obligatory, he should give both Qadha and kaffarah. The kaffarah is to feed sixty poor Shia Muslims by one mudd (750 grams) of foodstuffs to each 60 different needy Shia Muslims. Qadha should be performed in the same year and if it is delayed until the next Ramadhan, he should give the Qadha and kaffarah of 750 grams of food stuffs for each day to the poor. If the Qadha is delayed again in the following years, the kaffarah is not repeated.

INVALIDATING ONE'S FAST BY COMMITTING A SIN
Bararthani posted a topic in MAKEUP FAST AND "KAFFARAAT"
Question: According to some jurists, a person who intentionally invalidates his fast during the month of Ramadhan by committing a sin has to pay all three kinds of penalty [that is, fasting for sixty days, feeding sixty poor people, and emancipating a slave]. What should a person therefore do during our time when emancipating a slave is impossible since there are virtually no slaves? Answer: The penalty of emancipating a slave is waived when it is no longer possible. It should, however, be clarified that in our view, it is not obligatory to pay all three kinds of penalty for invalidating a fast during Ramadhan by committing a sin.
