أَخْبَرَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الْعَسْکَرِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سُلَيْمَانَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ مُسْلِمٍ الْبَطِينِ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ رَکِبَتْ امْرَأَةٌ الْبَحْرَ فَنَذَرَتْ أَنْ تَصُومَ شَهْرًا فَمَاتَتْ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَصُومَ فَأَتَتْ أُخْتُهَا النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَذَکَرَتْ ذَلِکَ لَهُ فَأَمَرَهَا أَنْ تَصُومَ عَنْهَا
سنن نسائی · Hadith 3852
It was narrated that Ibn ‘Abbas said: “A woman traveled by sea and vowed to fast for a month, but she died before she could fast. Her sister came to the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم , and told him about that, and he told her to fast on her behalf.” (Sahih)
