The Conditional Oath and How to Nullify It
A woman whose husband swore an oath of divorce against her if she bought something online, and sometimes he asks her to inquire about something online, does the oath take effect? What is the way to nullify this oath?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: If he intends to prevent her from buying at all, whether for herself or for others with his permission or without it, then she must not buy so that divorce does not occur. If he intends to prevent her from buying for herself, for example, then it is specific to this situation, and it is permissible for her to buy for others, for example. And God knows best.
