وَ كَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ يَا سَيِّدِي رَجُلٌ نَذَرَ أَنْ يَصُومَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ دَائِماً مَا بَقِيَ فَوَافَقَ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمُ يَوْمَ عِيدِ فِطْرٍ أَوْ أَضْحًى أَوْ أَيَّامَ التَّشْرِيقِ أَوِ السَّفَرَ أَوْ مَرِضَ هَلْ عَلَيْهِ صَوْمُ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ أَوْ قَضَاؤُهُ أَوْ كَيْفَ يَصْنَعُ يَا سَيِّدِي فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ قَدْ وَضَعَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ الصِّيَامَ فِي هَذِهِ الْأَيَّامِ كُلِّهَا وَ يَصُومُ يَوْماً بَدَلَ يَوْمٍ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ وَ كَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ يَسْأَلُهُ يَا سَيِّدِي رَجُلٌ نَذَرَ أَنْ يَصُومَ يَوْماً فَوَقَعَ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ عَلَى أَهْلِهِ مَا عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الْكَفَّارَةِ فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ يَصُومُ يَوْماً بَدَلَ يَوْمٍ وَ تَحْرِيرُ رَقَبَةٍ مُؤْمِنَةٍ.


Translation

Muhammad Bin Ja’far Al Razzaz, from Muhammad Bin Isa, from Ali Bin Mahziyar A – similar to it, and he wrote to him<sup>asws</sup>, ‘O my master! A man vowed that he would Fast on the day of Friday, for ever, whatever remains (from his life). So that day matched up with <span class="iTxt">Eid Al Fitr</span>, or <span class="iTxt">Az’ha</span>, or the days of <span class="iTxt">Tashreek</span>, or the journey, or an illness. Is the Fast of that day upon him, or its fulfillment, or how should he deal with it, O my master!’ So he<sup>asws</sup> wrote to him; ‘Allah<sup>azwj</sup> has Placed (Dropped) the Fasting during these days, all of them, and he should be Fasting a day in exchange for a day, Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Willing’. And he wrote to him<sup>asws</sup>, asking him<sup>asws</sup>, ‘O my master! A man vowed that he would be Fasting a day, so that day matched up upon his wife, what is upon him from the expiation’. So he<sup>asws</sup> wrote to him: ‘He should Fast a day in exchange for a day, and free a neck of a Believer’.
