Question

Is it obligatory to fulfill what you tell others to do if you didn't say 'without a vow'?

Answer

Hello,

It depends on the situation. If you promised someone to do something for them, you need to do it.

However, if you just said 'I'm going shopping', 'I'm going to read a book', and in the end, you don't need to go or there's a reason not to do it, there's no problem with that.
