According to Abu Hurayra (ra), the Prophet (saw) said, “The vow does not bring anything near to a person which Allah has not ordained for him, but (at times) the vow coincides with fate, and in this way something is extracted from the miser, which the miser did not want to be extracted.” (Muslim, al-Nadhr, 7)
