Question:
May Allah reward you. We also have Abu Saif from Dammam. Go ahead, Abu Saif. Speak. Go ahead. My brother, I have two questions. Peace be upon you, go ahead. Peace and mercy, peace be upon you. And upon you be peace. I have two questions, go ahead with the first question, O long-lived one. I was going to attend my brother’s son’s wedding, and because there was an understanding between them and me to support my brothers, and I was in agreement, I said, “By Allah, if I do not attend their wedding, I will not enter your house.” And the days passed, and my in-laws, whom I do not want to cut ties with, I do not want a severance, they went to him. Okay, thank you, let’s hide, let’s hide, the Shaykh will answer.
Answer:
Yes, yes. Expiate for your oath, because you swore that you would not enter his house, and then you entered his house. So the expiation is obligatory upon you. And this is better: that you enter his house rather than continuing the severance, my brother. Yes.
