Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ أَبِي بِشْرٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سَعِيدَ بْنَ جُبَيْرٍ يُحَدِّثُ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّ امْرَأَةً نَذَرَتْ أَنْ تَحُجَّ فَمَاتَتْ فَأَتَى أَخُوهَا النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَسَأَلَهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ أَرَأَيْتَ لَوْ كَانَ عَلَى أُخْتِكَ دَيْنٌ أَكُنْتَ قَاضِيَهُ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَاقْضُوا اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فَهُوَ أَحَقُّ بِالْوَفَاءِ.
English Translation
A woman vowed to perform Hajj but died. Her brother came to the Prophet (peace be upon him) and asked about it. He said: 'Do you think that if your sister had a debt, would you pay it?' He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Then fulfill the obligation to Allah, for He is more deserving of having promises fulfilled.'
