Question

I asked my husband to be for a face wash which he didn't get and I swore upon Allah that I won't talk to him, do I have to give kaffarah?

Answer

For a woman to talk casually to a man before marriage is impermissible. You may break your oath after marriage and give the kaffaarah.

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.
