And make not Allah's (Name) an excuse in your oaths against your doing good and acting piously, and making peace among mankind. And Allah is All-Hearer, All-Knower (i.e. do not swear much and if you have sworn against doing something good then give an expiation for the oath and do good).

And do not make [your oath by] Allah an excuse against being righteous and fearing Allah and making peace among people. And Allah is Hearing and Knowing.

Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi

(2:224) Do not use Allah's name for such oaths which are taken to keep back from virtue, piety and the welfare of mankind: *243

Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi

*243). Authentic Traditions indicate that if a person takes a vow and discovers later that righteousness and common good are best served by breaking that vow then he should do so. Expiation consists in either feeding or providing clothes for ten poor people, or setting free a slave, or fasting for three days (see 5: 89).
