Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a person vows to donate all of his wealth but only gives one-third, does he have to pay an expiation for the oath in addition to the one-third?

Answer:
No. If he vows to give charity with all of his wealth, the vow is directed to what is permissible by the Shari'ah, which is one-third. Yes.
