The answer

A vow of obedience must be fulfilled immediately; it is not permissible to delay it, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: (Whoever vows to obey Allah, let him obey Him). The command here implies immediacy. Therefore, it is not permissible to invest the money of a vow because it leads to delaying its fulfillment. This applies to both absolute vows and conditional vows whose due time has arrived.
