Hazrat Mughira narrates that Ibrahim was asked about a person who swore an oath that he would not maintain ties of kinship. He replied: He should maintain ties of kinship and offer expiation for his oath. Hazrat Sha'bi says: He should maintain ties of kinship, but there is no expiation for the oath. If I were to order him to give expiation for the oath, then I would also order him to fulfill his statement.
