In the time of the Prophet ﷺ a man took a vow to slaughter a camel at Buwanah. So he came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: I have taken a vow to sacrifice a camel at Buwanah. The Prophet ﷺ 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 ﷺ 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.  

أبو داود:٣٣١٣حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ رُشَيْدٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعَيْبُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ عَنِ الأَوْزَاعِيِّ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو قِلاَبَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي ثَابِتُ بْنُ الضَّحَّاكِ قَالَ

نَذَرَ رَجُلٌ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْ يَنْحَرَ إِبِلاً بِبُوَانَةَ فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنِّي نَذَرْتُ أَنْ أَنْحَرَ إِبِلاً بِبُوَانَةَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ هَلْ كَانَ فِيهَا وَثَنٌ مِنْ أَوْثَانِ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ يُعْبَدُ قَالُوا لاَ قَالَ هَلْ كَانَ فِيهَا عِيدٌ مِنْ أَعْيَادِهِمْ قَالُوا لاَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَوْفِ بِنَذْرِكَ فَإِنَّهُ لاَ وَفَاءَ لِنَذْرٍ فِي مَعْصِيَةِ اللَّهِ وَلاَ فِيمَا لاَ يَمْلِكُ ابْنُ آدَمَ
