The question

Is it the case that for one who swore, "By Allah, I will not set up (internet) for you until the Day of Resurrection," his oath is dissolved by a single expiation, or are multiple expiations required for him with the repetition of breaking the oath, and are two expiations required for him (one for breaking the oath and one for dissolving it) if he wishes to be absolved from his oath?

The answer

The oath is broken by the first instance of violating it, and the expiation is not repeated if the internet is turned on again, unless the intention at the time of swearing the oath was to repeatedly violate it. The violation is not repeated by repeating the act unless a صيغة (formulation) is used that implies repetition, such as saying "every time" or "whenever," or if repetition is intended.
