Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The caller from the Arab Republic of Egypt says in his question: I committed a sin, then I swore by Allah that I would not return to it again. However, this has happened to me more than once because I am weak. What should I do? And what is the expiation for these oaths? Please inform us, may Allah reward you and benefit us with your knowledge.

Answer:
If you did it without making an expiation, and you repeated it without making an expiation, then you make one expiation, because they are oaths regarding one thing and their consequence is one, so you make one expiation. But if you swore, then broke the oath and made an expiation, and then did it a second time, you must repeat the expiation for each time. Yes.
