Chapter 22 · Oaths and Vows (Kitab Al-Aiman Wa Al-Nudhur)حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ رُشَيْدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعَيْبُ بْنُ إِسْحَاق، عَنِ الْأَوْزَاعِيِّ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو قِلَابَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي ثَابِتُ بْنُ الضَّحَّاكِ، قَالَ: نَذَرَ رَجُلٌ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يَنْحَرَ إِبِلًا بِبُوَانَةَ، فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: إِنِّي نَذَرْتُ أَنْ أَنْحَرَ إِبِلًا بِبُوَانَةَ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: هَلْ كَانَ فِيهَا وَثَنٌ مِن أَوْثَانِ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ يُعْبَدُ ؟، قَالُوا: لَا، قَالَ: هَلْ كَانَ فِيهَا عِيدٌ مِنْ أَعْيَادِهِمْ ؟، قَالُوا: لَا، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أَوْفِ بِنَذْرِكَ، فَإِنَّهُ لَا وَفَاءَ لِنَذْرٍ فِي مَعْصِيَةِ اللَّهِ، وَلَا فِيمَا لَا يَمْلِكُ ابْنُ آدَمَ .

In the time of the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم a man took a vow to slaughter a camel at Buwanah. So he came to the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم and said: I have taken a vow to sacrifice a camel at Buwanah. The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم asked: Did the place contain any idol worshipped in pre-Islamic times? They (the people) said: No. He asked: Was any pre-Islamic festival observed there? They replied: No. The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said: Fulfil your vow, for a vow to do an act of disobedience to Allah must not be fulfilled, neither must one do something over which a human being has no control.
