The Expiation When Oaths Are Repeated
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The second question of Fatwa No. ( 9407 )
Q 2: I swore that I would hit my sister for a reason, but I did not do so after my anger subsided. A few days later, I swore to do another thing, even though I had not yet paid the expiation for my first oath. I asked a shaykh: Is one expiation obligatory on me, or two? He told me: If you swear to something and you have not paid the expiation for your first oath, one expiation is obligatory. I asked another about that, and he said: Two expiations are obligatory on you.
A 2: Two expiations are obligatory on you; because the matter you first swore to is different from the second. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
