The Ruling on Intending a Specific Vow and an Oath Expiation

Question
What is the ruling on someone who intends a specific vow and an oath expiation?
Answer

His fasting counts towards the vow; because the two intentions conflict and cancel each other out, leaving the intention of fasting in general, so it counts towards the specific vow, as mentioned in Bada'i' al-Sana'i' 2: 84.
