Sunan Ibn Majah 1771
It was
narrated that ‘Aishah said:
“When the Prophet (ﷺ) wanted to
start I’tikaf, he would pray the Subh, then he would enter the
place
where he wanted to observe I’tikaf. He wanted to spend the
last ten
days of Ramadan in I’tikaf, so he ordered that a tent be
set up for
him.” Then ‘Aishah ordered that a tent be set up for
her, and Hafash
ordered that a tent be set up for her. When Zainab
saw their two
tents, she also ordered that a tent be set up for her.
When the
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) saw that, he said: “It is
righteousness that
you seek?” Then he did not observe I’tikaf
during Ramadan, and he
observed I’tikaf during ten days of Shawwal.
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَعْلَى بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ عَمْرَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَعْتَكِفَ صَلَّى الصُّبْحَ ثُمَّ دَخَلَ الْمَكَانَ الَّذِي يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَعْتَكِفَ فِيهِ فَأَرَادَ أَنْ يَعْتَكِفَ الْعَشْرَ الأَوَاخِرَ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ فَأَمَرَ فَضُرِبَ لَهُ خِبَاءٌ فَأَمَرَتْ عَائِشَةُ بِخِبَاءٍ فَضُرِبَ لَهَا وَأَمَرَتْ حَفْصَةُ بِخِبَاءٍ فَضُرِبَ لَهَا فَلَمَّا رَأَتْ زَيْنَبُ خِبَاءَهُمَا أَمَرَتْ بِخِبَاءٍ فَضُرِبَ لَهَا فَلَمَّا رَأَى ذَلِكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ قَالَ ‏
"‏ آلْبِرَّ تُرِدْنَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَلَمْ يَعْتَكِفْ فِي رَمَضَانَ وَاعْتَكَفَ عَشْرًا مِنْ شَوَّالٍ ‏.‏
