Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: Is it derived from the hadith of 'Umar that the disbeliever is addressed by the rulings of the Shari'ah and held accountable for them?
Answer:
He is not addressed as long as he is a disbeliever; he is not addressed regarding this. But if he embraces Islam, he is addressed regarding fulfilling [his vow]. As for if he does not embrace Islam, he is not required to fulfill the vow, because his worship is not valid while he is a disbeliever. Yes.
