The expiation for an oath that has not been fulfilled after a year has passed
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: I swore an oath and did not fulfill it, and I did not feed anyone and I did not fast. This was a year ago. What is required of me?
The Shaykh:
I swore an oath.
The questioner:
And I did not fulfill it, and I did not feed anyone and I did not fast.
The Shaykh:
It remains. The expiation is a debt upon you until it is discharged.
The questioner:
And when the time has passed.
The Shaykh:
It remains a debt upon you in its entirety. Expiate it now, yes.
