The expiation for breaking/lying on an oath
shaykh ibn ʿuthaymīn رحمه الله said:
the expiation for a broken oath gives a person 3 options to choose from:
1. feeding 10 of the poor
2. clothing 10 of the poor
3. freeing a slave
whoever is unable to do a single one of these, for example one who is poor, then he fasts 3 days.
however, one who is able to either feed 10 of the poor, clothe 10 of the poor or free a slave but instead he fasts 3 days with the intention of expiating for an oath, then that is impermissible.
