Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: A teacher swore that a student would not attend the next day unless his father was with him. The student was absent. Does the teacher owe an expiation?
Answer:
He combined them: that he attends and his father attends with him. His father was not present with him. If he did not attend with him—if he attended but his father did not attend with him—the teacher owes an expiation. As for if he did not attend at all, the condition of the oath did not occur. Yes. Because he swore that he would attend and his father would attend with him. If he did not attend, then what depends on his attendance is also void, and there is nothing in it. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh,
