Swearing to honor a guest, but the guest did not accept
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q2: I visited one of the people and he gave me a slaughtered animal, and I swore about it, and he swore by Allah that I would not take it, and he insisted on me, so I took it. Do I have to pay an oath expiation in this case? Q3: A guest came to me and I swore that I would provide him with a slaughtered animal, but he refused and left, so do I have to pay an oath expiation? May Allah reward you with good and place it in your scales of good deeds.
A2, 3: If the situation is as described, then you must pay an expiation for the first oath and another expiation for the second oath. This is freeing a believing slave, or feeding ten poor people, giving each poor person half a sa' (a dry measure of about 3 kg) of food, such as rice or other staple food of the country, or clothing them. If you are unable to do any of what is mentioned, then you must fast for three days.
