The ruling on saying "if Allah wills" when making a vow

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a person makes a vow, is he advised to say: "if Allah wills"?

Answer:
The Shaykh: Yes?
Q: If a person makes a permissible vow, is he advised to say: "if Allah wills"? Should he say: "if Allah wills"?
A: He should not make a vow at all; making a vow is disliked for him. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Do not make vowsلا تنذروا
If he says: "if Allah wills," the vow is not completed. Or if he says: "By Allah, if Allah wills," it becomes nothing. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Whoever swears an oath, and then says: "If Allah Wills", he is not held accountable if he breaks it.من حلف فقال في يمينه: إن شاء الله فلا حنث عليه
Bulugh al-Maram 1378
