أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ قُدَامَةَ، فِي حَدِيثِهِ عَنْ جَرِيرٍ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ الْبَصْرِيِّ، قَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ سَمُرَةَ قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " إِذَا حَلَفْتَ عَلَى يَمِينٍ فَرَأَيْتَ غَيْرَهَا خَيْرًا مِنْهَا فَأْتِ الَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ وَكَفِّرْ عَنْ يَمِينِكَ " .

'Abdur-Rahman bin Samurah said:
"The Messenger of Allah said to me: 'If you swear an oath, then you see something that is better, do that which is better, and offer expiation for your oath.'" (ES)
