3313. Thābit bin Ad-Dāḥḥāk said: “A man swore at the time of the Prophet ﷺ to sacrifice a camel in Buwānah. He came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: “I have vowed to sacrifice a camel in Buwānah.” The Prophet ﷺ said: “Was there any of the idols of the Jāhiliyyah there that were worshiped?” They said: “No.” He said: “Was any of their festivals held there?” They said: “No.” The Prophet ﷺ said: “Fulfill your vow, for no vow should be fulfilled if it involves disobedience towards Allāh or that which the son of Ādam does not possess.” (Ṣaḥīḥ)

3313 - حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ رُشَيْدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعَيْبُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ الْأَوْزَاعِيِّ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو قِلَابَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي ثَابِتُ بْنُ الضَّحَّاكِ، قَالَ: نَذَرَ رَجُلٌ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يَنْحَرَ إِبِلًا بِبُوَانَةَ فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: إِنِّي نَذَرْتُ أَنْ أَنْحَرَ إِبِلًا بِبُوَانَةَ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «هَلْ كَانَ فِيهَا وَثَنٌ مِنْ أَوْثَانِ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ يُعْبَدُ؟» قَالُوا: لَا، قَالَ: «هَلْ كَانَ فِيهَا عِيدٌ مِنْ أَعْيَادِهِمْ؟»، قَالُوا: لَا، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَوْفِ بِنَذْرِكَ، فَإِنَّهُ لَا وَفَاءَ لِنَذْرٍ فِي مَعْصِيَةِ اللَّهِ، وَلَا فِيمَا لَا يَمْلِكُ ابْنُ آدَمَ»
