إِنَّ أُمِّي كَانَتْ جَعَلَتْ عَلَيْهَا نَذْراً نَذَرَتْ لِلَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فِي بَعْضِ وُلْدِهَا فِي شَيْءٍ كَانَتْ تَخَافُهُ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ تَصُومَ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ الَّذِي تَقَدَّمَ فِيهِ عَلَيْهَا مَا بَقِيَتْ فَخَرَجَتْ مَعَنَا إِلَى مَكَّةَ فَأَشْكَلَ عَلَيْنَا صِيَامُهَا فِي السَّفَرِ فَلَمْ تَدْرِ تَصُومُ أَوْ تُفْطِرُ فَسَأَلْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ لَا تَصُومُ فِي السَّفَرِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ قَدْ وَضَعَ عَنْهَا حَقَّهُ فِي السَّفَرِ وَ تَصُومُ هِيَ مَا جَعَلَتْ عَلَى نَفْسِهَا فَقُلْتُ لَهُ فَمَا ذَا إِذَا قَدِمَتْ إِنْ تَرَكَتْ ذَلِكَ قَالَ لَا إِنِّي أَخَافُ أَنْ تَرَى فِي وَلَدِهَا الَّذِي نَذَرَتْ فِيهِ بَعْضَ مَا تَكْرَهُ .
Translation
Ali, from his father, from Ibn Mahboun, from Ali Bin Raib, from Zurara who said, ‘My mother had made vow upon herself. She vowed for Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic regarding one of her children with regards to something which she had feared over him, that she would be Fasting on that day which had come upon her, for as long as she lived. So she went out with use to Makkah. So that was confusing upon us, for her to be Fasting during the journey. So she did not know when she should be Fasting or breaking it. So I asked Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> about that, so he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘She should not Fast during the journey. Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic has Placed (dropped) it from her, being her right in the journey, and she should be Fasting what she had made it to be upon herself’. So I said to him<sup>asws</sup>, ‘So what would be that when the day comes and she leaves that?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘No! I<sup>asws</sup> fear that she would see in her child that which she had vowed regarding it, some of what she had left’.
