Expiation for numerous oaths of unknown number
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: I have sworn many oaths, and I do not know their number. He asks: How do I expiate for them?
Answer:
Verify them and expiate for the ones you are certain of. As for mere doubt, nothing is required of you regarding it. Oaths differ; some carry an expiation, while others are vain oaths that do not carry an expiation. I do not know what these oaths are.
