Question:
The Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, says: In his saying, “You are forbidden to me,” is this not included in His saying, Exalted is He:[At-Tahrim 66:1] that he forbade one of his wives? And yet, He made expiation obligatory upon him: “Why did you forbid what Allah has made lawful for you?” and He made expiation obligatory upon him, peace and blessings be upon him.
Answer:
Yes, but because the one he forbade was a slave woman, the expiation is that of an oath. However, if the one he forbade was a wife, the expiation is that of zihar. Yes.
