Description of vows (nadhar)
Hadith 11
51- وبه: أن سعد بن عبادة استفتى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فقال: إن أمي ماتت وعليها نذر ولم تقضه، فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: ”اقضه عنها“ .
And with the same chain of narration (it is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas, may Allah be pleased with them both) that Sayyiduna Sa'd bin Ubadah, may Allah be pleased with him, asked the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, about an issue: My mother has passed away and she had a vow (which was obligatory) that she did not fulfill? So the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Fulfill (the vow) on her behalf."
