The ruling on numerous vows that the woman making them is unable to fulfill

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This is a woman asking, and she says: Since I was seven years old, from that age, I have been making vows that if Allah saves me from the rain or the dust, I will slaughter a camel. These vows have multiplied upon me until they reached two hundred camels, and I am unable to fulfill them. So what is obligatory for me?

The Shaykh:
I.

The questioner:
I am unable to fulfill them, so what is obligatory for me?

The Shaykh:
It is obligatory to slaughter the animals for the vows, because this is a vow of obedience. As for the one you are unable to fulfill, you must expiate it with the expiation for an oath. Yes.
