Continuation of reading a research paper on the issue of one who makes a vow and then becomes insane: is it made up on his behalf?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : ... according to the view that it is supported, and al-Mughni is well known for supporting the madhhab. The summary is that if a person makes a specific vow for a day or a month, and then becomes insane before that day arrives—meaning that day finds him to be insane—then there is no making up of it on his behalf. Yes, this is with regard to bodily acts of worship. As for financial acts of worship, for example, if he said, "If Zayd comes, I have a vow to Allah to give such-and-such in charity," and Zayd comes while he is insane, we mentioned in ... that day that the charity is obligatory on him, because the obligation here is in wealth, and it is like zakah, which is obligatory on the insane person, whereas prayer and fasting are not obligatory on him. Yes.
