3325. It was narrated from Ibn 'Umar, that 'Umar said: "O Messenger of Allāh, I made a vow during Jāhiliyyah to spend one night in I'tikāf in Al-Masjid Al-Harām.' The Prophet ﷺ said to him: 'Fulfill your vow.'" (Ṣaḥīḥ)

Arabic text

3325 - حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنِي نَافِعٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنْ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنِّي نَذَرْتُ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ أَنْ أَعْتَكِفَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ لَيْلَةً، فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَوْفِ بِنَذْرِكَ»

Commentary
