Question:
Abu Abd al-Rahman, please ask your question. Peace be upon you. And upon you be peace. Your Eminence the Shaykh, I made a vow that I would slaughter a camel if I were appointed in the Noble Makkah. The order of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques (may Allah preserve him) was issued appointing people as teachers, and the Ministry appointed me temporarily in Makkah, but then I was transferred. Is it obligatory for me to fulfill the vow? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
Yes, it is obligatory for you to fulfill the vow; because you conditioned it on something, and that thing happened. This vow is an act of worship and gratitude to Allah (Mighty and Majestic), so it is obligatory for you to fulfill it. Yes.
