EXPLANATIONS:
An oath is a serious promise that one makes to another person or to Allah. It is important to take an oath seriously and fulfill it as much as possible. Breaking an oath can have serious consequences for the person who made it. This hadith teaches us that if we make an oath and say "In sha' Allah" then we will never break our promise. This means that if we are sincere in our intention when making the promise then Allah will help us keep it. We must always strive to keep our promises no matter what the circumstances may be.
