Sahih Muslim
كتاب الأيمان
The Book of Oaths
" مَنْ حَلَفَ عَلَى يَمِينٍ فَرَأَى غَيْرَهَا خَيْرًا مِنْهَا فَلْيَأْتِ الَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ وَلْيُكَفِّرْ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ "
He who took an oath and (later on) found another thing better than that, he should do that which is better, and expiate for the vow (broken by him).
