What is the expiation for repeated swearing during anger and ignorance of the number of times one has sworn?
One should not swear frequently by Allah, as it indicates audacity towards Him and a lack of reverence for Him. There is no expiation for repeated oaths unless the swearer breaks their oath. Anger does not affect the validity of an oath unless it reaches a state of complete overwhelmingness, where one is not aware of their actions. For someone who is ignorant of the number of oaths for which expiations are due, they may take the lesser amount, as the fundamental principle is the acquittal of responsibility. However, it is more cautious to make up for the day that is doubtful.
