وَعَن زيد بن أَرقم عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ: «إِذَا وَعَدَ الرَّجُلُ أَخَاهُ وَمِنْ نِيَّتِهِ أَنْ يَفِيَ لَهُ فَلَمْ يَفِ وَلِمَ يَجِئْ لِلْمِيعَادِ فَلَا إِثْمَ عَلَيْهِ» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَالتِّرْمِذِيُّ
Zaid bin Arqam Narrated from:
The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "when a man promises to his brother and his intention is to make good his promise but (for some reason) cannot do it and fails to come at the specified time, he will not be regarded a sinner (on that account)." [1]
