The ruling on one who swears an oath to drink poison

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a person swears an oath to drink poison but does not drink it, what is the ruling in that?

Answer:
It is not permissible for him to drink it. Rather, he should break his oath; it is obligatory for him to break it and pay the expiation for his oath, so it is not permissible to drink the poison. Yes.
