3291 - Ibn al-Sarh narrated to us, Ibn Wahb narrated to us, from Yunus, from Ibn Shihab, with its meaning and chain of transmission.

= From 'A'ishah, raised to the Prophet (marfu'an). It is also narrated from al-Zuhri who said: Abu Salamah narrated. And it is narrated from al-Zuhri, from Sulayman ibn Arqam, from Yahya ibn Kathir, from Abu Salamah, from 'A'ishah — and this is the correct version.

Al-Hafiz said in "al-Fath" 11/587 after citing the hadith: It is transmitted by the authors of the Sunan, and its narrators are trustworthy, but it is defective ('illah), for al-Zuhri narrated it from Abu Salamah, then clarified that he had received it from Sulayman ibn Arqam, from Yahya ibn Abi Kathir, from Abu Salamah — thus he concealed it (tadlis) by omitting two narrators, and thought well of Sulayman ibn Arqam, who is according to others weak by consensus. However, Yahya ibn Abi Kathir corroborated al-Zuhri in his narration as recorded by al-Tayalisi (1484), for he narrated it from Abu Salamah, from 'A'ishah, and its chain is sound.

It was also transmitted by al-Tirmidhi (1603) and al-Nasa'i in "al-Mujtaba" (3835-3838) through multiple routes from Yunus ibn Yazid al-Ayli, with this chain.

It is in "Musnad Ahmad" (26098).

See what follows it.

It has a supporting witness (shahid) from the hadith of Ibn 'Abbas with a strong chain as recorded by Ibn al-Jarud (935), and through him al-Bayhaqi 10/72, raised to the Prophet: "The vow is of two kinds: whatever is for Allah, its fulfillment is required, and whatever is for Satan, there is no fulfillment in it, and upon it is the expiation of an oath."

In this chapter is the hadith of 'Uqbah ibn 'Amir, raised to the Prophet, as recorded by Muslim (1645), and it will come at Abu Dawud (3224), its wording being: "The expiation of a vow is the expiation of an oath."

In "al-Mughni" by Ibn Qudamah 13/624: A vow of disobedience is not permissible to fulfill by consensus... and the one who makes such a vow must offer the expiation of an oath. Something similar to this is narrated from Ibn Mas'ud, Ibn 'Abbas, Jabir, 'Imran ibn Husayn, and Samurah ibn Jundub, and it is the view of al-Thawri, Abu Hanifah, and his companions.

It is narrated from Ahmad something indicating that no expiation is required of him, for he said concerning one who vowed: "I will demolish another's house brick by brick" — there is no expiation upon him. And this falls under the same meaning. This is also narrated from Masruq and al-Sha'bi, and it is the school of Malik and al-Shafi'i...

See necessarily "Tahdhib al-Sunan" by Ibn al-Qayyim 4/373-376.

(1) A sound hadith like the preceding one. Ibn al-Sarh: he is Ahmad ibn 'Amr ibn 'Abdullah, and Ibn Wahb: he is 'Abdullah.
