Not fulfilling a vow

· 10 Muharram 1439 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

My wife has asked this question, she lost something and in emotion she made a mannat that she will recite 11 times Surah Yaseen, 5 times the next day and 6 times the day after when she will find that thing. Now she has found that thing but forgot to recite the first day, i.e. 5 times Surah Yaseen. The question is, is there any kafarah for that?

Answer

She may read it on some other day.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
