21
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى، وَمُسَدَّدٌ، - وَهَذَا حَدِيثُهُ - قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم : " مَنْ حَلَفَ فَاسْتَثْنَى فَإِنْ شَاءَ رَجَعَ، وَإِنْ شَاءَ تَرَكَ غَيْرَ حِنْثٍ " .

Narrated Abdullah ibn Umar:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: If anyone swears an oath and makes an exception, he may fulfil it if he wishes and break it if he wishes without any accountability for breaking. (RU)
