You are required to expiate your oath, which involves feeding ten needy persons with food of the average kind you provide to your own family, or clothing them, or freeing a slave. If you are unable to do that, then you must fast for three days. You did well by breaking your oath and marrying a religious man, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Whoever takes an oath and then sees something better than it, let him do what is better and expiate his oath."
