Taking an oath on one's mother's name
Question
I was forced to swear on my mothers life not to do something. I did not know it was haraam and now I am uncomfortable. Will she be harmed if I break this oath?
Answer
No.
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.
