3851. It was narrated from Ibn 'Umar, that 'Umar had vowed to spend a night in Itikâf during the Jâhilîyyah. He asked the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ about that, and he ordered him to perform the Itikâf. (Saḥīḥ)

Arabic text

3820 - أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مُوسَى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنْ عُمَرَ، أَنَّهُ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ لَيْلَةٌ نَذَرَ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ يَعْتَكِفُهَا، فَسَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، «فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَعْتَكِفَ»

Commentary

'A night in Itikâf: It may be used as proof by some that one could perform Itikâf without fasting, because there is no fast during the night. While it may be argued that this narration does not prove that, since 'night' could have been used to signify a day and its night, as appears in No. 3853
