expiation
.............

And We prescribed for them therein: The life for the
life, and the eye for the eye, and the nose for the
nose, and the ear for the ear, and the tooth for
the tooth, and for wounds retaliation. But whoso
forgoeth it (in the way of charity) it shall be
expiation for him
1

The expiation thereof is the feeding of ten of
the needy with the average of that wherewith
ye feed your own folk
1

This is the expiation of your oaths when ye have sworn;
1

(the forfeit) to be brought as an offering to the Ka'bah;
or, for expiation, he shall feed poor persons, or the
equivalent thereof in fasting, that he may taste the
evil consequences of his deed
