The ruling on one who vows to go to the grave of al-Badawi and visit it?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, this is a questioner from outside this country who says: A woman vowed that if Allah cured her son of his illness, and he is a paraplegic, she would go to the grave of al-Badawi and visit it. He says: And he has been cured. So is it obligatory for her to fulfill the vow?

Answer:
No, this is a vow of disobedience. Whoever vows to disobey Allah must not disobey Him. Going to the grave of al-Badawi and seeking blessing from it is disobedience and is not permissible. The grave of al-Badawi is worshipped alongside Allah. It is well known that they worship it, call upon it, and seek blessing from it. Yes.
