Taking a vow
Question
A person vowed that if I never fall ill, then I will stop smoking. He hasn’t fallen ill still now but he has smoked many times. Does he have to offer expiation and if yes then does he have to offer only one expiation or for every time he broke the vow?
Answer
There is no expiation.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
