Sadaqah niyat

Question:

i made a promise to spend total amount of my first salary which was supposed to be 10,000 on a good cause for the satisfaction of allah and for his forgiveness and protection, but due to some reasons i only got 1,000 which i spent as i have promised. Now my next months salary would be 10,000 hopefully. Is it mandatory to spent my next months whole salary too…to fulfill my promise…please advice as soon as possible.

Answer:

Actions are by intentions. You fulfilled your promise by spending the whole paycheck, finished, insha-Allah. If still in doubt pay some part of your next check and each one after until your heart is at rest (tamaneenah).
