John Shaqi

سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يَقُولُ عَلَيَّ نَذْرٌ قَالَ لَيْسَ بِشَيْ‏ءٍ حَتَّى يُسَمِّيَ النَّذْرَ وَ يَقُولَ عَلَيَّ صَوْمٌ لِلَّهِ أَوْ يَتَصَدَّقَ أَوْ يُعْتِقَ أَوْ يُهْدِيَ هَدْياً وَ إِنْ قَالَ الرَّجُلُ أَنَا أُهْدِي هَذَا الطَّعَامَ فَلَيْسَ هَذَا بِشَيْ‏ءٍ إِنَّمَا تُهْدَى الْبُدْنُ .


Translation

Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ali Bin Al Hakam, from Ali Bin Abu Hamza, from Abu Baseer who said, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> about the man who is saying, ‘Upon me is a vow’. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘It is not with anything until he names the vow and is saying, ‘Upon me is a Fast for the Sake of Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, or a charity, or freeing (a slave), or an offering of a gift. And if the man says, ‘I gift this food’, so this is not with anything, but rather the camel is an offering’.
