Bulugh al-Maram #1571

كتاب الأيمان والنذور

وَعَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ ‏- رضى الله عنه ‏- قَالَ: ‏"‏نَذَرَتْ أُخْتِي أَنْ تَمْشِيَ إِلَى بَيْتِ اَللَّهِ حَافِيَةً, فَقَالَ اَلنَّبِيُّ ‏- صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏- "لِتَمْشِ وَلْتَرْكَبْ‏"‏ مُتَّفَقٌ عَلَيْهِ, وَاللَّفْظُ لِمُسْلِمٍ.

Narrated 'Uqba bin 'Aamir (RA):

His sister took a vow to walk to Allah's House (for pilgrimage) barefooted. Then, she ordered him to consult Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), so he consulted him for a religious verdict and the Prophet (ﷺ) replied, “Let her walk and ride.”.
