Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A person swore, saying, "By Allah, I will pray the sunnah prayers daily," but then he did not pray the Fajr sunnah for several days. Does he owe expiation for the number of days he missed?

Answer:
Yes, if he said "daily," that means every day, so he owes expiations for the number of days he missed. Yes.
