Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, I vowed to Allah that if I were appointed to work at a specific school, it would happen.
The Shaykh:
Or in the judiciary, if it happened, what then?
The questioner:
If I were appointed to work at a school.
The Shaykh:
Now, regarding the judiciary. Well, you don't know?
The questioner:
If I were appointed to work at a specific school where the employee receives an additional allowance on his salary,
The Shaykh:
for example.
The questioner:
that I would donate that percentage monthly, and Allah granted me work at this school, but I have not donated that percentage until now. The reason for this is that I bought a car with very high installments that burdened me. What is the ruling in this? Knowing that five months have passed since then.
The Shaykh:
The ruling is that this is a debt in your trust that you are required to pay out in full from this trust. This is a debt to Allah the Exalted.
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, a man vowed to buy.
The Shaykh:
a luxurious and expensive car, and he left off the obligatory duty. So, the condition for the car is that you fulfill the obligatory duty that is upon you. Yes.
