Saying “If Allah wills” in an oath and its effect on the expiation

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: I swear a lot. When I swear, I say “If Allah wills” either before or after the oath. Do I have to pay an expiation?

Answer:
No,
swears [about an oath] and says: 'If Allah wills (Insha Allah), then he will not have broken it.حلف على يمين فقال إن شاء الله لم يحنث
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 1532Sahih (Darussalam)
, because this is an exception in the oath, so the oath is not established when one says “If Allah wills,” because it is an exception.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
