Q
What is the significance of vows in Islam and how do they relate to divine decree?
A
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Allah says, ‘The vow, does not bring about for the son of Adam anything I have not
decreed for him, but his vow may coincide with what has been decided for him, and by this way I
cause a miser to spend of his wealth. So he gives Me (spends in charity) for the fulfillment of what has
been decreed for him what he would not give Me before but for his vow.”
