I owe many expiations for breaking oaths, some of which I know and some I do not know, because I often swear to do something then break that oath. This has become a habit with me. How can I expiate for that even though there are many of them?.
Praise be to Allaah.
What is required of the Muslim is to take the matter of oaths seriously, by not swearing many of them. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
“And make not Allaah’s (Name) an excuse in your oaths”
[al-Baqarah 2:224]
So do not swear oaths except when necessary. The Muslim must protect his oath by offering expiation if he wants to do something other than what he swore to do, because the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “By Allaah, if Allaah wills, I do not swear an oath and then see something that is better than it but I offer expiation for my oath and do that which is better, or I do that which is better and offer expiation for my oath.” Narrated by al-Bukhaari and Muslim in their Saheehs. This version was narrated by al-Bukhaari. It was also narrated by Abu Dawood, al-Nasaa’i, al-Tirmidhi, Ibn Maajah and Imam Ahmad.
With regard to numerous oaths, if they all had to do with the same thing, then expiation only needs to be offered once. For example, if you said, “By Allaah, I will not speak to So and so,” and you said that many times, then you spoke to him, then you only have to offer expiation once.
But if you swore oaths regarding several things, such as if you said, “By Allaah, I will not speak to So and so,” then you spoke to him, and you said, “By Allaah, I will not travel to such and such a place,” then you went there, and so on, then for each oath you have to offer expiation. And you should try to be on the safe side by offering expiation for whatever you think is most likely to be the case, so that will have discharged your duty.
And Allaah is the Source of strength. May Allaah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and companions.
Learn Holy Quran because it will be a proof for us muslim on the Day of Judgment.
This is due to the statement of the Messenger: “And the Quran is a proof for you or against you.” [Muslim] so the deputy of every Muslim is to read quran and learn quran with tajweed so one of two things will occur with this proof, the Book of Allah. And this quran education will be in your favor, a proof for us on the Day when we will need every single good deed and learning quran along with doing quran memorization is one of it and to add more spread the quran teaching and spread the kids quran knowledge and listening to quran online and understand the quran tafseer , it will be something standing against us and follow the guidance of or prophet Muhammad peace be upon him, and these good deeds will be a proof against us! Who could be saved from the terrors of that Day if Allah’s own Speech is against him?!?! Think carefully, so reading Arabic Quran and teaching our kids quran qaida with the tafseer of quran and let the kids memorize quran dear Muslim brother or sister, about your position with the reading Quran! Are you neglecting it, contradicting it, being heedless of its orders and prohibitions, are you thinking deeply over it?! Will it be on your side on the Day of Judgment.? So learn quran recitation! O Allah! We ask you, by Your Glorious Speech and the rest of your beautiful Names and Attributes, to make the Quran a proof for us! So the Quran tutor should let his student know about these facts also,
