Thus are ye admonished to perform: and Allah is well-acquainted with (all) that ye do.

4. And if any has not (the wherewithal), he should fast for two months consecutively
before they touch each other. But if any is unable to do so, he should feed sixty indigent
ones, this, that ye may show your faith in Allah and His Messenger. Those are limits (set
by) Allah. For those who reject (Him), there is a grievous Penalty.
