حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْجَبَّارِ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ
أَنَّ عُمَرَ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ نَذْرُ اعْتِكَافٍ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ لَيْلَةً، فَسَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَعْتَكِفَ، وَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ قَدْ وَهَبَ لَهُ جَارِيَةً مِنْ سَبْيِ حُنَيْنٍ، فَبَيْنَمَا هُوَ مُعْتَكِفٌ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ إِذْ دَخَلَ النَّاسُ يُكَبِّرُونَ، فَقَالَ: مَا هَذَا ؟ قَالُوا: رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَرْسَلَ سَبْيَ حُنَيْنٍ. قَالَ: فَأَرْسَلُوا تِلْكَ الْجَارِيَةَ

✧ 'Umar had a vow in the pre-Islamic era to perform spiritual retreat for one night. He asked the Prophet ﷺ, and he ordered him to retreat. The Prophet ﷺ had given him a slave girl from the captives of Hunayn. While he was in retreat in the mosque, the people entered shouting "Allahu Akbar," and he said: "What is this?" They said: "The Messenger of God ﷺ has sent the captives of Hunayn." He said: "So they sent that slave girl."
