Vowing to slaughter a ram and feed his friends if he passes the exams and passing them but being unable to gather his friends

Q: A person has vowed to slaughter a ram if he would succeed in the exams. (Part No. 23; Page No. 243) However, his colleagues are in different places. Some are in Al-Dammam, others in Al-Hijaz, and others in Kuwait. Indeed, he cannot gather them at one place. What should he do?

A: If the reality is as mentioned, this person has to fulfill his vow and slaughter the ram, and feed it to the poor and those of his colleagues who could come, because Allah (Exalted be He) has praised those who fulfill their vows. Allah (Exalted be He) says: They (are those who) fulfil (their) vows Also, the Prophet (peace be upon him) has ordered the people to fulfill their vows. Allah (Exalted be He) says: Allâh burdens not a person beyond his scope. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
