حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ عُمَرَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ نَذَرَ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ أَنْ يَعْتَكِفَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ ـ قَالَ أُرَاهُ قَالَ ـ لَيْلَةً قَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " أَوْفِ بِنَذْرِكَ ".
Translation
Ubayd ibn Ismail narrated to us: Abu Usama narrated to us, from Ubayd Allah, from Nafi, from Ibn Umar: Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, had vowed in the pre-Islamic era to observe retreat in the Sacred Mosque. The narrator said, “I think he said: for one night.” The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said to him, “Fulfill your vow.”
