Is Hajj obligatory upon a woman who vowed to perform Hajj if she were blessed with a child, and this has come true, bearing in mind that she has not yet performed the obligatory Hajj?

Vows are forbidden and do not bring good. However, whoever makes a vow to obey Allah must fulfill it, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Whoever vows to obey Allah, let him obey Him." Otherwise, he exposes himself to a severe punishment, as Allah mentioned in Surat At-. One must be cautious of vows and not obligate oneself to what Allah has not obligated upon them.
