Arabic hadith text
أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " لاَ يَأْتِي النَّذْرُ عَلَى ابْنِ آدَمَ شَيْئًا لَمْ يُقَدِّرْهُ عَلَيْهِ وَلَكِنَّهُ شَىْءٌ يُسْتَخْرَجُ بِهِ مِنَ الْبَخِيلِ " .
Translation
ʿAbdullah ibn Muhammad ibn ʿAbd al-Rahman reported to us; he said: Sufyan narrated to us; he said: Abu al-Zinad narrated to us, from al-Aʿraj, from Abu Hurayrah, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: ‘A vow brings the son of Adam nothing that Allah has not decreed for him. It is only a means by which something is extracted from a miser.’
