Question 2125) - A man vowed not to enter "this bayt [house]." It was destroyed and completely levelled. He then entered the land. Is the vow broken?
A: No.*
* Bayt necessitates a building where the night can be spent. Thus if the roof has collapsed and the walls remain, the vow will be violated as one can spend the night there.
