English translation
6680. Narrated Abū Mūsā Al-Ash'arī: I went along with some men from the Ash'ariyūn to Allāh's Messenger ﷺ and it happened that I met him while he was in an angry mood. We asked him to provide us with mounts, but he swore that he would not give us any. Later on he said, "By Allāh, If Allāh will, if ever I take an oath (to do something) and later on I find something else better than the first, then I do the better one and give expiation for the dissolution of my oath."
