حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، أَخْبَرَنِي نَافِعٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ أَنَّ عُمَرَ، سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ كُنْتُ نَذَرْتُ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ أَنْ أَعْتَكِفَ لَيْلَةً فِي الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ، قَالَ " فَأَوْفِ بِنَذْرِكَ ".
Translation
Musaddad related to us: Yaḥyā ibn Saʿīd related to us, from ʿUbayd Allāh, who informed me, from Nāfiʿ, from Ibn ʿUmar (may Allah be pleased with them both): ʿUmar said to the Prophet (Allah bless him and grant him peace): ‘During the pre-Islamic period, I vowed to observe iʿtikāf for one night in the Sacred Mosque.’ He said: ‘Fulfill your vow.’
