The ruling on one who swore to pray two rak'ahs after every prayer and then was unable to do so

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
We take Abdullah from al-Qassim. Please, Abdullah. Peace be upon you, and Allah's mercy and blessings. And upon you be peace and Allah's mercy. May Allah give you well-being, O Shaykh. May Allah reward you with good, if Allah wills. Amen. O Shaykh, I have three questions. The first question is about a woman who swore that if Allah grants us a son, she will pray two rak'ahs after every prayer. O Shaykh, how does she pray? Sometimes she is traveling. What is your advice and guidance for her? The Shaykh answers.

The Shaykh:
Did she swear or make a vow?

The questioner:
No, she broke her oath, O Shaykh.

The Shaykh:
She expiates for her oath, and this matter is not obligatory upon her. Yes.
