Muwatta Malik #1062
Vows and Oaths
Yahya related to me from Malik that Humayd ibn Qays and Thawr ibn
Zayd adDili both informed him that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, (and one of them gave more detail than
the other),saw a man standing in the sun. The Messenger asked, "What's
wrong with him?" The people said, "He has vowed not to speak or to
seek shade from the sun or to sit and to fast." The Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Go and tell him
to speak, seek shade, and sit, but let him complete his fast."
Malik said, "I have not heard that the Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, ordered the man in question to do
any kaffara. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, only ordered him to complete that in which there was obedience
to Allah and to abandon that in which there was disobedience to
Allah."
