A vow to disobey Allah and whether there is an expiation for it

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I said to him something, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said in a hadith of Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her)
and whoever vows to disobey Allah, let him notالله عنها من نذر أن يعصي الله فلا
Sunan Ibn Majah 2126Sahih (Darussalam)
The question is: If a person vows to disobey Allah and does not receive its reward, does he have to make an expiation, or does he owe nothing?

Answer:
He owes nothing. It is not permissible for him to fulfill the vow, and he does not have to make an expiation; because the vow is not established. A vow to commit a sin is not established, because it is a vow that is not prescribed. If it is not prescribed, it is not established. So what is the basis for obligating an expiation upon him?
