Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
"Making vows () is not legislated, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, forbade it. However, whoever vows an act of obedience to Allah must fulfill it. So, if you are able to fast what you vowed, then you are obliged to fulfill it. If you are unable, then you must offer an expiation for breaking an oath, which is feeding ten poor people, or clothing them, or freeing a slave."
