١٥٢٨ - حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدٌ مَوْلَى الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي كَعْبُ بْنُ عَلْقَمَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي الْخَيْرِ ، عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «كَفَّارَةُ النَّذْرِ إِذَا لَمْ يُسَمَّ كَفَّارَةُ يَمِينٍ» هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ غَرِيبٌ.

Commentary
If a vow is made without a condition, the expiation is that of an oath. For example, while making a vow if it is not made clear that a fast will be kept or some amount will be given in charity, or voluntary prayers (Nawāfil) will be performed, etc., in this case one has to pay the expiation for an oath. (Tuhfat Al-Ahwadhī v.2. p.368.)
