The point of similarity between a vow and an oath
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
So the Shaykh said, "Aunt of 'Amir ibn 'Amir, you have made a vow, and with this you have fulfilled it, and the other one remained, so how can you not complete it?"
The Shaykh:
Ibn Nafi' or Ibn 'Amir? Ibn 'Amir, yes, he has made a vow.
The questioner:
His proof for this is to the knees of Muslim, and the opinion of the other, so how are you bound by it?
The Shaykh:
A vow resembles an oath, and an oath has an expiation. So if a vow is not fulfilled, it has an expation. This is the point of similarity.
