Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible to declare an oath broken before the violation?

Answer:
It is permissible for him to declare the oath broken before the violation and after it; because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Whoever swears an oath, then sees something better than it, let him do that which is better.إذا حلف أحدكم على يمين فرأى غيرها خيرًا منها، فليكفر عن يمينه، وليأت الذي هو خير
Sunan an-Nasa'i 3781Hasan (Darussalam)
, and this hadith includes in its wording declaring the oath broken before the violation and after it.
