A woman vowed to recite the Qur'an every month, then became unable to do so; what is required of her?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A woman vowed to recite the Qur'an every month if she succeeded. Then that happened, and she fulfilled her vow for several months. Then she became unable to do so. What is her ruling?

Answer:
And the one who vows to obey Allah should obey Him. The vow is binding on her until she is unable to do so in a genuine, real sense of inability. I do not think she would be unable to read one part of the Qur'an every day and complete it in a month. I do not think she would be unable to do that, but perhaps she might be unable to do so in bulk.
