The answer

A vow must be fulfilled even if it is disliked, especially a conditional vow, based on the Prophet's (peace be upon him) saying: "It does not bring forth good, but rather it is used to extract from the miser." A conditional vow must be fulfilled when its condition is met. Therefore, the questioner must fast three days each month to fulfill her vow, in accordance with the Almighty's saying: (They fulfill their vows and fear a Day whose evil will be widespread) [Quran 76:7]. However, if she is unable due to illness or old age, she may break her fast and offer an expiation for breaking an oath.
