This hadith is narrated on the authority of Suhail and it teaches us that if we break a vow or promise that we have made, then we should make an expiation for it. An expiation is when you do something to make up for what you did wrong. We should also try to do something better than what we promised in the first place. This hadith teaches us to take responsibility for our actions and strive to do good even when things don't go as planned.
