The ruling on one who forgets the amount of the charity he vowed

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Likewise, a man says: I vowed that if Allah heals me, I would give a certain amount in charity, but I have forgotten the amount I vowed. What is the ruling?

Answer:
Give in charity what is most likely to be the amount, what is most likely to be the amount. And give an amount that is also beneficial. As for a trivial amount that is not beneficial and does not meet a need, that is not acceptable. Give something that has benefit.
