Arabic hadith text
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُقَاتِلٍ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ عُمَرَ، قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي نَذَرْتُ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ أَنْ أَعْتَكِفَ لَيْلَةً فِي الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ. قَالَ " أَوْفِ بِنَذْرِكَ ".
Translation
Muhammad ibn Muqatil Abu al-Hasan narrated to us; Abdullah informed us; Ubaydullah ibn Umar informed us, from Nafi, from Ibn Umar, that Umar said: O Messenger of Allah, in the pre-Islamic era I vowed to perform spiritual retreat for one night in the Sacred Mosque. He said: Fulfill your vow.
