The Book of the Prohibited actions
وعن أبي موسى رضي الله عنه أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: "إني والله إن شاء الله لا أحلف على يمين، ثم أرى خيرًا منها إلا كفرت عن يميني، وأتيت الذي هو خير". ((متفق عليه))
Abu Musa (May Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "Verily, I swear by Allah, if Allah wills, I shall not swear to do something but that if I consider something else to be better than it, then I shall make expiation for my oath and adopt the thing that is better.".
