If I swore by Allah or made a vow to Him to refrain from a certain act, and refraining was preferable, but I have violated it multiple times, is a separate expiation required for each violation, or is one expiation sufficient for the first violation?
Answer
In the name of Allah, yes, you must offer expiation for each violation of the oath. May Allah guide you. Allah knows best.
