Seek knowledge even before revelation came down; strive for spiritual growth through acts such as I’tikaf; perform religious pilgrimages like Umra if possible; devote oneself to Allah SWT .

This hadith speaks about two important events in Islamic history. Firstly, it mentions that the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) performed an Umrah from a place called Jairana. An Umrah is an Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca which can be done at any time of year, unlike Hajj which must be done during specific months. Secondly, it mentions that Umar took a vow of I'tikaf during the days of Ignorance. I'tikaf is when one secludes themselves in a mosque for spiritual contemplation and worship for at least one day or night. During this period before Islam was revealed to mankind, people were living in ignorance as they did not have access to divine guidance yet; this period was known as 'the days of Ignorance'. Therefore, this hadith highlights how even before Islam was revealed people were still striving for spiritual growth through acts such as I'tikaf.
