Does a divorce oath, made with the intention of preventing a son from going out for recreation, take effect if he goes out for studying?
The oath is based on the intention of the swearer. If, by your oath, you intended for your son and his mother to leave for recreation, then you do not break your oath by his leaving to attend a private lesson, and your wife remains under your responsibility. However, the oath is not dissolved until he leaves for recreation, unless you specified a time limit for your oath. We advise you to avoid swearing by divorce in the future.
