1- أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ عَنْ مَنْصُورِ بْنِ حَازِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ إِذَا قَالَ الرَّجُلُ عَلَيَّ الْمَشْيُ إِلَى بَيْتِ اللهِ وَهُوَ مُحْرِمٌ بِحَجَّةٍ أَوْ عَلَيَّ هَدْيُ كَذَا وَكَذَا فَلَيْسَ بِشَيْءٍ حَتَّى يَقُولَ للهِ عَلَيَّ الْمَشْيُ إِلَى بَيْتِهِ أَوْ يَقُولَ للهِ عَلَيَّ أَنْ أُحْرِمَ بِحَجَّةٍ أَوْ يَقُولَ للهِ عَلَيَّ هَدْيُ كَذَا وَكَذَا إِنْ لَمْ أَفْعَلْ كَذَا وَكَذَا.

1. Abu Ali al-Ash‘ariy has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan from Mansur ibn Hazim who has narrated the foffowing: “Abu ‘Abd Allah , has said, ‘A man says, ‘It is obligatory on me to walk to the house of Allah’ when he is in the state of Ihram for al-Hajj. He may say, ‘It is obligatory on me to offer such and such offering.’ However, he does not owe anything until he says, ‘It is obligatory on me from Allah to walk to His house.’ Or says, ‘It is obligatory from Allah on me to assume the state of Ihram for al-Hajj.’ Or he says, ‘From Allah it is obligatory on me to offer an offering of such and such if I did not do such and such thing.’”
