Ayatollah Khamenei and Ayatollah Sistani (may Allah protect them):
A vow must be fulfilled as soon as the conditions related to it are met, provided that all the conditions of the vow are fulfilled, including the ability to fulfill it. This ability encompasses both material and other forms of capability. If the situation you mentioned puts you in a position of inability to fulfill the vow, then you are not obligated to fulfill it.
May you be successful in all good.
