The answer

A Muslim should avoid swearing excessively. The expiation for an oath is feeding ten needy people, or clothing them, or freeing a slave. If one is unable to do these, then fasting for three days is required. The fasting may be done consecutively or non-consecutively, though consecutive fasting is better.
