SUPERCEEDING AN OATH

1764

“The Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, told me (Abdur Rahman, son of Samurah), ‘If you take an oath for something and afterwards see something else which is better, choose that which is better and expiate the oath.’"

Muslim with a chain up to Abdur Rahman the son of Samurah who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this.
