Fulfilling Vows After Death

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad advised Sa'd to fulfill a vow his mother had made before her death.

It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas said: "Sa'd consulted the Messenger of Allah about a vow which his mother had to fulfill, but she died before doing so. The Messenger of Allah said: 'Fulfill it on her behalf'."
أَخْبَرَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ مَزْيَدَ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبِي قَالَ، حَدَّثَنَا الأَوْزَاعِيُّ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي الزُّهْرِيُّ، أَنَّ عُبَيْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَخْبَرَهُ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ اسْتَفْتَى سَعْدٌ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فِي نَذْرٍ كَانَ عَلَى أُمِّهِ فَتُوُفِّيَتْ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَقْضِيَهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ اقْضِهِ عَنْهَا

This hadith is about fulfilling a vow after the death of the person who made it. Sa'd asked the Prophet Muhammad for advice on what to do with a vow his mother had made but hadn't fulfilled before she passed away. The Prophet Muhammad advised him to fulfill it on her behalf, showing that even after someone has died, their promises should still be kept and respected. This teaches us that we should always strive to keep our promises and commitments, even if they are difficult or inconvenient for us. It also shows us how important it is to respect our parents and honor their wishes, even after they have passed away.
