Discussion regarding the exception in an oath.

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : It is beneficial if one intends to seek blessing, due to the generality of the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)
Whoever swears an oath, and then says: "If Allah Wills", he is not held accountable if he breaks it. من حلف على يمين فقال إن شاء الله فلا حِنْث عليه
Bulugh al-Maram 1378
and this is general. If he did not stipulate continuity, this is even more so. It is related to the will; if he intended to make it conditional, it is clear, and if he intended to affirm it, it is as if it were not there, so the exception is as if it were not there. Yes.
