The Ruling on Contradictory Oaths Between Two Persons
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The Shaykh (may Allah correct him) said: If you swear to one thing and another person swears to the negation of that thing, and you are in the same position, there is no doubt.
Answer:
One of you wants to break his oath. You swore that he would eat your food and enter your home, while he swore that he would not enter and would not eat your food. One of you wants to break his oath. No, that does not happen. The oath binds the one who breaks it, and he owes the expiation. If he enters, the expiation is obligatory on him. If he does not enter, the expiation is obligatory on you. Yes.
