حَدَّثَنَا
مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيل ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا
حَمَّادٌ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنَا
حَبِيبٌ الْمُعَلِّمُ ، عَنْ
عَطَاءِ بْنِ أَبِي رَبَاحٍ ، عَنْ
جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا قَامَ يَوْمَ الْفَتْحِ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنِّي نَذَرْتُ لِلَّهِ إِنْ فَتَحَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ مَكَّةَ ، أَنْ أُصَلِّيَ فِي بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ ، قَالَ : صَلِّ هَاهُنَا ، ثُمَّ أَعَادَ عَلَيْهِ ، فَقَالَ : صَلِّ هَاهُنَا ، ثُمَّ أَعَادَ عَلَيْهِ ، فَقَالَ : شَأْنُكَ إِذًا " ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد : رُوِيَ نَحْوُهُ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ .
Narrated Jabir ibn Abdullah: A man stood on the day of Conquest (of Makkah) and said: Messenger of Allah, I have vowed to Allah that if He grants conquest of Makkah at your hands, I shall pray two rak'ahs in Jerusalem. He replied: Pray here. He repeated (his statement) to him and he said: Pray here. He again repeated (his statement) to him. He (the Prophet) replied: Pursue your own course, then. Abu Dawud said: A similar tradition has been narrated by Abdur-Rahman bin Awf from the Prophet ﷺ.

Takhrij:
«أخرجه أبوداود، الأيمان والنذور، باب من نذر أن يصلي في بيت المقدس، حديث:3305، وأحمد:3 /363، والحاكم:4 /304، 305.»©Explanation:
This hadith is evidence that if, for the fulfillment of a vow (nadhar), a specific place has been designated, and the vow is fulfilled at a place superior to that, then the vow is considered fulfilled. In fact, the context of the hadith itself necessitates that preference is given to the superior location, even if it is different from the place specified in the vow.
