«لَا أُكَلِّمُ هَذَا أَوْ هَذَا»
“I will not speak to this person or that one.”
With negation, one must identify the scope of the prohibition and how the alternatives are related to it. Choosing one alternative in an affirmative instruction is not identical to determining a breach of an oath under a negative expression.
The juristic discussion therefore examines the semantics of negation and the conditions for violating the oath. Aw must be interpreted together with the negation that governs it.
