64. Vows
٦٤۔ كِتَابُ النُّذُورِ
The sister of Uqbah ibn Amir took a vow that she would perform hajj on foot, and she was unable to do so. The Prophet ﷺ said: Allah is not in need of the walking of your sister. She must ride and offer a sacrificial camel. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3303)
رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّ اللهَ لَغَنِيٌّ عَنْ مَشْيِ أُخْتِكَ فَلْتَرْكَبْ وَلْتُهْدِ بَدَنَةً
قَتَادَةَ دُونَ ذِكْرِ الْهَدْيِ فِيهِ
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ was informed that the sister of Ukba bin Amir had vowed to perform Hajj on foot. So he said to her, "Indeed, Allah is wealthy and does not need her vow. So, command her to ride instead." This is also narrated from Khalid al-Hazza' from Ikrimah without mentioning the mention of the sacrifice in it. And it was narrated by Ibn Abi 'Arooba from Qatadah and he sent it and did not mention the sacrifice in it.
النَّبِيَّ ﷺ بَلَغَهُ أَنَّ أُخْتَ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ نَذَرَتْ أَنْ تَحُجَّ مَاشِيَةً فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِنَّ اللهَ لَغَنِيٌّ عَنْ نَذْرِهَا فَمُرْهَا فَلْتَرْكَبْ وَكَذَلِكَ رُوِيَ عَنْ خَالِدٍ الْحَذَّاءِ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ دُونَ ذِكْرِ الْهَدْيِ فِيهِ وَرَوَاهُ ابْنُ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ فَأَرْسَلَهُ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرِ الْهَدْيَ فِيهِ
[Machine] To perform the pilgrimage on foot, Uqbah asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, who replied, "It is better for you to ride, for Allah the Almighty is not in need of the vow of your sister or the walk of your sister." Sa'id reported from Qatadah, who reported from 'Ikrimah that the sister of Uqbah, in the sense of Hisham, did not mention the offering. She said, "Tell your sister to ride." Abu Dawud said that Khalid narrated it from 'Ikrimah in the same sense, and it was also said that 'Ikrimah narrated it from 'Uqbah bin 'Amir without mentioning the offering in it.
أَنْ تَحُجَّ مَاشِيَةً فَسَأَلَ عُقْبَةُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ مُرْهَا أَنْ تَرْكَبَ فَإِنَّ اللهَ تَعَالَى غَنِيٌّ عَنْ نَذْرِ أُخْتِكَ أَوْ مَشْيِ أُخْتِكَ شَكَّ سَعِيدٌ 20118 وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ أنبأ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ ثنا ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى ثنا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ أَنَّ أُخْتَ عُقْبَةَ بِمَعْنَى هِشَامٍ لَمْ يَذْكُرِ الْهَدْيَ وَقَالَ فِيهِ مُرْ أُخْتَكَ فَلْتَرْكَبْ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَرَوَاهُ خَالِدٌ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ بِمَعْنَاهُ وَقِيلَ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ دُونَ ذِكْرِ الْهَدْيِ فِيهِ
[Machine] Verily, Allah does not intervene in your sister's walk to the house in any way.
إِنَّ اللهَ لَا يَصْنَعُ بِمَشْيِ أُخْتِكَ إِلَى الْبَيْتِ شَيْئًا
A man came to Prophet ﷺ and said: Messenger of Allah, my sister has taken a vow to perform hajj on foot. The Prophet ﷺ said: Allah gets no good from the affliction your sister imposed on herself, so let her perform hajj riding and make atonement for her oath. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3295)
جَاءَ رَجُلَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ أُخْتِي نَذَرَتْ أَنْ تَحُجَّ مَاشِيَةً فَقَالَ إِنَّ اللهَ لَا يَصْنَعُ بِشَقَاءِ أُخْتِكَ شَيْئًا لِتَحُجَّ رَاكِبَةً ثُمَّ تُكَفِّرَ يَمِينَهَا تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ شَرِيكٌ الْقَاضِي
[Machine] He said, "My sister has vowed to perform Hajj for the sake of Allah, riding a non-mating (unfertile) she-camel." He further said, "I mentioned this to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he said, 'Tell your sister to mate it, ride it, and observe (optional) fasting for three days.'"
قَالَ نَذَرَتْ أُخْتِي أَنْ تَحُجَّ لِلَّهِ مَاشِيَةً غَيْرَ مُخْتَمِرَةٍ قَالَ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ مُرْ أُخْتَكَ فَلْتَخْتَمِرْ وَلِتَرْكَبْ وَلْتَصُمْ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَكَذَلِكَ
[Machine] While the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was traveling in a caravan in the middle of the night, he noticed a group of people whose camels had wandered away from them. A man came down and saw a naked woman whose hair was untied. He asked her, "What is the matter with you?" She replied, "I have made a vow to perform the pilgrimage to the Kaaba while naked with my hair untied. I hide during the day and travel on the road at night." The Prophet ﷺ was informed of this and he said, "Tell her to put on her clothes and leave a trail of blood." This narration has a weak chain of narration and another chain that is disconnected without mentioning the animal sacrifice.
بَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَسِيرُ فِي رَكْبٍ فِي جَوْفِ اللَّيْلِ إِذَ بَصُرَ بِخَيَالٍ قَدْ نَفَرَتْ مِنْهُ إِبِلُهُمْ فَأَنْزَلَ رَجُلًا فَنَظَرَ فَإِذَا هُوَ بِامْرَأَةٍ عُرْيَانَةٍ نَاقِضَةٍ شَعْرَهَا فَقَالَ مَا لَكِ؟ قَالَتْ إِنِّي نَذَرْتُ أَنْ أَحُجَّ الْبَيْتَ مَاشِيَةً عُرْيَانَةً نَاقِضَةً شَعْرِي فَأَنَا أَتَكَمَّنُ بِالنَّهَارِ وَأَتَنَكَّبُ الطَّرِيقَ بِاللَّيْلِ فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرَهُ فَقَالَ ارْجِعْ إِلَيْهَا فَمُرْهَا فَلْتَلْبَسْ ثِيَابَهَا وَلْتُهْرِقْ دَمًا هَذَا إِسْنَادٌ ضَعِيفٌ وَرُوِيَ مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ مُنْقَطِعٍ دُونَ ذِكْرِ الْهَدْيِ فِيهِ
[Machine] The Prophet of Allah, ﷺ , once saw a woman with her hair uncovered and asked, "What is this?" They replied, "O Messenger of Allah, she made a vow to perform Hajj with her hair uncovered." The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , commanded them to tell her to cover her head and ride on a camel.
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهَ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَانَتْ مِنْهُ نَظْرَةٌ فَإِذَا هُوَ بِامْرَأَةٍ نَاشِرَةٍ شَعْرَهَا فَقَالَ مَا هَذِهِ؟ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ نَذَرَتْ أَنْ تَحُجَّ مَاشِيَةً نَاشِرَةً شَعْرَهَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مُرُوهَا فَلْتُغَطِّي رَأْسَهَا وَلْتَرْكَبْ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ rarely stood among us without urging us to give in charity and forbidding us from gambling. He said, "Among the acts of gambling is to target someone's nose with an arrow, and among the acts of gambling is to target someone's pilgrimage while on foot. So if any of you pledges to perform a pilgrimage on foot, then let him offer a sacrifice and let him ride." This was narrated by Muhammad bin Abdillah Al-Ansari from Salih. He said in the narration, "Then let him offer a sacrifice and let him ride. The year was 201." Abu Abdullah Al-Hafiz informed us that Abdullah bin Ishaq Al-Baghawi in Baghdad narrated to us, and Abu Qilabah Abdul Malik bin Muhammad narrated to him, and Muhammad bin Abdullah Al-Ansari narrated to him, and Salih bin Rustum mentioned it in its meaning. He said, "Then let him offer a sacrifice and let him ride. It is not valid to hear the Hadith from Imran bin Hussein, for in it there is sending. And Allah knows best." And it was narrated in it from Ali.
قَلَّمَا قَامَ فِينَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَّا حَثَّنَا فِيهِ عَلَى الصَّدَقَةِ وَنَهَانَا عَنِ الْمُثْلَةِ وَقَالَ إِنَّ مِنَ الْمُثْلَةِ أَنْ تَنْذِرَ أَنْ تَخْرِمَ أَنْفَهُ وَمِنَ الْمُثْلَةِ أَنْ تَنْذِرَ أَنْ تَحُجَّ مَاشِيًا فَإِذَا نَذَرَ أَحَدُكُمْ أَنْ يَحُجَّ مَاشِيًا فَلْيُهْدِ هَدْيًا وَلْيَرْكَبْ وَرَوَاهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ عَنْ صَالِحٍ وَقَالَ فِي الْحَدِيثِ فَلْيُهْدِ بَدَنَةً وَلْيَرْكَبْ 20126 أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ أنبأ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الْبَغَوِيُّ بِبَغْدَادَ أنبأ أَبُو قِلَابَةَ عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ ثنا صَالِحُ بْنُ رُسْتُمَ فَذَكَرَهُ بِمَعْنَاه وَقَالَ فَلْيُهْدِ بَدَنَةً وَلْيَرْكَبْ وَلَا يَصِحُّ سَمَاعُ الْحَسَنِ مِنْ عِمْرَانَ فَفِيهِ إِرْسَالٌ وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ وَرُوِيَ فِيهِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ؓ
[Machine] Ali said about a man who swears to walk, "Let him walk, but if he becomes unable, he can ride and offer a camel as compensation."
عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ؓ فِي الرَّجُلِ يَحْلِفُ عَلَيْهِ الْمَشْيُ فَقَالَ يَمْشِي فَإِنْ عَجَزَ رَكِبَ وَأَهْدَى بَدَنَةً
