Hadith 1394
Oaths and Vows
Narrated Jabir (bin 'Abdullah) (RA):
A man said on the day of the Fath, "O Messenger of Allah, I have vowed that if Allah opens the conquest of Makkah at your hands I shall pray in Jerusalem." He replied, "Pray here." He asked him again and he replied, "Pray here." He asked him again and he replied, "It's up to you, then." [Reported by Ahmad and Abu Dawud. al-Hakim graded it Sahih (authentic)].
وَعَنْ جَابِرٍ - رضى الله عنه - { أَنَّ رَجُلاً قَالَ يَوْمَ اَلْفَتْحِ: يَا رَسُولَ اَللَّهِ! إِنِّي نَذَرْتُ إِنْ فَتَحَ اَللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ مَكَّةَ أَنْ أُصَلِّيَ فِي بَيْتِ اَلْمَقْدِسِ, فَقَالَ: "صَلِّ هَا هُنَا" . فَسَأَلَهُ, فَقَالَ: "صَلِّ هَا هُنَا". فَسَأَلَهُ, فَقَالَ: "شَأْنُكَ إِذًا" } رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ, أَبُو دَاوُدَ, وَصَحَّحَهُ اَلْحَاكِمُ [1] .
