Taking an oath that one will become a kaafir if one commits a certain action
Question
If I take an oath of disbelief by using the word "whenever", will I become kaafir whenever I do that particular thing or only once? Example if I say, "Whenever I do a particular thing I will become a kaafir".
Answer
Try your best to avoid doing that work. Don't ever do it deliberately.
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.
