Sunan an-Nasai 3842 (Book 35, Hadith 82) #18457
Anger and Vows in Islam

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) taught that there is no need to make a vow when one is angry, and the expiation for such a vow is the same as an oath.

It was narrated that 'Imran bin Husain said: "The Messenger of Allah said: 'There is no vow at a moment of anger and its expiation is the expiation for an oath'."
أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مَيْمُونٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بِشْرٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ الْحَنْظَلِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ لاَ نَذْرَ فِي غَضَبٍ وَكَفَّارَتُهُ كَفَّارَةُ الْيَمِينِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ ضَعِيفٌ لاَ يَقُومُ بِمِثْلِهِ حُجَّةٌ ‏.‏ وَقَدِ اخْتُلِفَ عَلَيْهِ فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ

EXPLANATIONS:
In this hadith, the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) teaches us about anger and vows. He explains that when we are angry, we should not make any vows or promises because they are not valid. Instead, if we do make a vow while angry, then it must be expiated like an oath. This means that if someone makes a promise while angry but does not fulfill it, then they must pay something to atone for their mistake. This teaches us to be mindful of our words and actions even when we are feeling strong emotions like anger so that we can avoid making mistakes or breaking promises unintentionally.
