The vow and whether its disliked nature is removed if the intention is to fulfill it

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, we hear that making a vow is disliked, but what is the ruling for one who makes a vow in order to perform the worship of fulfilling the vow, given the saying of Allah the Exalted: "They fulfill their vows"? Does the ruling of dislike disappear in that case, making the vow recommended?

Answer:
No, the ruling of prohibition does not change, even if the vow is for worship. This is if it becomes worship after you have made the vow; but before you make it, you are forbidden from doing so. The door of worship itself is open: if you see an opportunity to give charity, go and give it; if you want to pray a voluntary prayer, pray at night, pray some of the night; if you want to strive in voluntary worship or rely on voluntary worship, the door is open without you having to speak [make a vow]. Stay in a state of ease. If you do it, you are eager for the reward, and if you do not do it, no one will blame you. But if you make a vow and it is in your heart, you may be pleased with it, or it may become difficult for you. That is why many of those who make vows put scholars in a difficult position with their questions, wanting to get rid of this vow, such as fasting on Saturday, or fasting half of Saturday, or fasting five months in total, or so on. It becomes difficult for them, whereas at first it was easy for them.
