\nNarrated `Amra bint `Abdur-Rahman from `Aisha:\n \n\nAllah's Messenger (ﷺ) used to practice I`tikaf every year in the month of Ramadan. And after offering the \nmorning prayer, he used to enter the place of his I`tikaf. `Aisha asked his permission to let her practice \nI`tikaf and he allowed her, and so she pitched a tent in the mosque. When Hafsa heard of that, she also \npitched a tent (for herself), and when Zainab heard of that, she too pitched another tent. When, in the \nmorning, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) had finished the morning prayer, he saw four tents and asked, "What is \nthis?" He was informed about it. He then said, "What made them do this? Is it righteousness? Remove \nthe tents, for I do not want to see them." So, the tents were removed. The Prophet (ﷺ) did not perform \nI`tikaf that year in the month of Ramadan, but did it in the last ten days of Shawwal.\n

\nحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ فُضَيْلِ بْنِ غَزْوَانَ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ عَمْرَةَ بِنْتِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ قَالَتْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَعْتَكِفُ فِي كُلِّ رَمَضَانَ، وَإِذَا صَلَّى الْغَدَاةَ دَخَلَ مَكَانَهُ الَّذِي اعْتَكَفَ فِيهِ ـ قَالَ ـ فَاسْتَأْذَنَتْهُ عَائِشَةُ أَنْ تَعْتَكِفَ فَأَذِنَ لَهَا فَضَرَبَتْ فِيهِ قُبَّةً، فَسَمِعَتْ بِهَا حَفْصَةُ، فَضَرَبَتْ قُبَّةً، وَسَمِعَتْ زَيْنَبُ بِهَا، فَضَرَبَتْ قُبَّةً أُخْرَى، فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم مِنَ الْغَدِ أَبْصَرَ أَرْبَعَ قِبَابٍ، فَقَالَ ‏"‏ مَا هَذَا ‏"‏‏.‏ فَأُخْبِرَ خَبَرَهُنَّ، فَقَالَ ‏"‏ مَا حَمَلَهُنَّ عَلَى هَذَا آلْبِرُّ انْزِعُوهَا فَلاَ أَرَاهَا ‏"‏‏.‏ فَنُزِعَتْ، فَلَمْ يَعْتَكِفْ فِي رَمَضَانَ حَتَّى اعْتَكَفَ فِي آخِرِ الْعَشْرِ مِنْ شَوَّالٍ‏.‏
