Arabic hadith text
أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " النَّذْرُ لاَ يُقَدِّمُ شَيْئًا وَلاَ يُؤَخِّرُهُ إِنَّمَا هُوَ شَىْءٌ يُسْتَخْرَجُ بِهِ مِنَ الشَّحِيحِ " .
Translation
ʿAmr ibn ʿAli reported to us; he said: Yahya narrated to us; he said: Sufyan narrated to us, from Mansur, from ʿAbdullah ibn Murrah, from Ibn ʿUmar, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: ‘A vow neither brings anything forward nor delays it; it is only a means by which something is extracted from a miser.’
