The Ruling on Vows and the Effect of the Prohibition Thereof

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We thank our brothers in Riyadh, and we move on to the questions of the brothers present here. Is it correct to say that the prohibition of vows is for prohibition; because the default ruling for a prohibition is prohibition, and that what was reported in praising those who fulfill their vows does not indicate that it is not forbidden, as evidenced by the fact that Allah praised those who repent from sins, so does that indicate that sins are disliked?

Answer:
The scholars say that one should not make a vow. Some of them, the majority, say that entering into a vow is disliked, and a group say that making a vow is forbidden, entering into it is forbidden, because it came in a narration: "Do not make vows." The prohibition came regarding it, and a prohibition necessitates prohibition. Yes.
