Arabic hadith text
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ الْجُهَنِيِّ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ " مَنْ نَذَرَ نَذْرًا وَلَمْ يُسَمِّهِ فَكَفَّارَتُهُ كَفَّارَةُ يَمِينٍ " .
Translation
ʿAli ibn Muhammad narrated to us; Wakiʿ narrated to us; Ismaʿil ibn Rafiʿ narrated to us, from Khalid ibn Yazid, from ʿUqbah ibn ʿAmir al-Juhani, who said: The Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and grant him peace) said: ‘Whoever makes a vow without specifying it, its expiation is the expiation for an oath.’
