Question:
The Shaykh’s function. He said: If one of you swears to do something, and another swears to not do it, and we are in the same position, what is the ruling?
Answer:
One of you does not want to break his oath. You swore that he would eat your food and enter your home, and he swore that he would not enter and would not eat anyone’s food. One of you wants to break the oath. The one who does not achieve his goal, his oath becomes binding on him, and the expiation becomes obligatory. If he enters, the expiation becomes obligatory on him. If he does not enter, it becomes obligatory on you. Yes.
