باب الاِعْتِكَافِ

Sunan Abi Dawud 2464

Ummul Momineen Aishah (رضي الله تعالى عنها) narrated that when the Apostle of Allah ( صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) intended to observe I'tikaf, he prayed the fajr prayer and then entered his place of seclusion. Once he intended to observe I'tikaf during the last ten days of Ramadan, he ordered to pitch a tent for him, and it was pitched. She said, the other wives of the Prophet ( صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) also ordered to pitch tents for them and they were pitched. When he offered the fajr prayer, he saw the tents, and said, what is this? Did you intend to do an act of virtue? He then ordered to demolish his tent, and it was demolished. Then his wives also ordered to demolish their tents and they were demolished. He then postponed I'tikaf till the first ten days, that is of Shawwal. Imam Abu Dawood said, this tradition has been transmitted by Ibn Ishaq and al-Auza'i from Yahya bin Sa'id in a similar manner, and Malik narrated it from Yahya bin Sa'id, saying, he observed I'tikaf during twenty days of Shawwal.
