3144. Narrated Nāfi'; 'Umar bin Al-Khaṭṭāb رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ said, "O Allāh's Messenger! I vowed to observe Iṭikāf for one day during the pre-Islāmic period." The Prophet ﷺ ordered him to fulfil his vow. 'Umar gained two female captives from the war prisoners of Hunain and he left them in some of the houses at Makkah. When Allāh's Messenger ﷺ freed the captives of Hunain without ransom, they came out walking in the streets. 'Umar said (to his son), "O Abdullāh! See what is the matter". ‘Abdullāh replied, “Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ has freed the captives without ransom.” He said (to him), “Go and set free those two slave-girls.” (Nāfi’ added:) Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ did not perform the ‘Umra from Al-Jīrāna, and if he had performed the ‘Umra, it would not have been hidden from ‘Abdullāh.
