Question:
If a person has many oaths upon him, is one expiation sufficient for them?
Answer:
If the oaths are regarding a single action, one expiation is sufficient for them. For example, if he says, "By Allah, I will not speak to so-and-so," and "By Allah, I will not speak to so-and-so," and repeats this many times, and then speaks to him, one expiation is sufficient for him. However, if his oaths are regarding different actions, he is required to pay an expiation for each oath. For example, if he says, "By Allah, I will not speak to so-and-so," "By Allah, I will not visit so-and-so," and "By Allah, I will not travel to such-and-such a country," and then does so, he is required to pay expiations equal in number to the oaths.
May Allah guide them all.
