[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ encountered two men who were walking together towards the house. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked, "What is the matter with you two?" They replied, "O Messenger of Allah, we have made a vow to walk together towards the house." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "This is not a vow." He then severed their bond. Suraqah mentioned in his narration, "Verily, a vow is only intended for seeking the face of Allah, the Exalted and Majestic."
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَدْرَكَ رَجُلَيْنِ وَهُمَا مُقْتَرِنَانِ يَمْشِيَانِ إِلَى الْبَيْتِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَا بَالُ الْقِرَانِ؟ قَالَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ نَذَرْنَا أَنْ نَمْشِيَ إِلَى الْبَيْتِ مُقْتَرِنَيْنِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَيْسَ هَذَا نَذْرًا فَقَطَعَ قِرَانَهُمَا قَالَ سُرَيْجٌ فِي حَدِيثِهِ إِنَّمَا النَّذْرُ مَا ابْتُغِيَ بِهِ وَجْهُ اللهِ ﷻ
