Is it permissible to be released from an oath of divorce if it was sworn to the wife that she would not lie in the future, and how is that done?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
If a man ties divorce to his wife lying again, he cannot be absolved of this oath or cancel it. If she does not lie in the future, then nothing is incumbent upon him. But if she lies, divorce occurs according to the majority of scholars. And if her divorce occurs, then the oath is dissolved, and no divorce will befall her if he takes her back and she lies after that, provided that this divorce is the first or second.
