Vows Tents

"Narrated Ibn Umar:\n\nUmar asked the Prophet (ﷺ), \"I vowed in the Pre-Islamic period of ignorance to stay in I'tikaf for one night in Al-Masjid al-Haram.\" The Prophet (ﷺ) said to him, \"Fulfill your vow.\" So, he performed I'tikaf for one night.\n\nNarrated Ibn Umar:\n\nUmar had vowed in the Pre-Islamic period to perform I'tikaf in Al-Masjid al-Haram. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said to Umar, \"Fulfill your vow.\"\n\nNarrated Abu Huraira:\n\nThe Prophet (ﷺ) used to perform I'tikaf every year in the month of Ramadan for ten days, and when it was the year of his death, he stayed in I'tikaf for twenty days.\n\nNarrated Amra:\n\nAisha said, \"The Prophet (ﷺ) used to practice I'tikaf in the last ten days of Ramadan and I used to pitch a tent for him. After offering the morning prayer, he used to enter the tent.\" Hafsa asked Aisha's permission to pitch a tent for her and she allowed her. When Zainab bint Jahsh saw it, she pitched another tent. In the morning the Prophet noticed the tents and asked, \"What is this?\" He was told the situation. Then the Prophet said, \"Do you think that they intended to do righteousness by doing this?\" He therefore abandoned the I'tikaf in that month and practiced I'tikaf for ten days in the month of Shawwal.\n\nNarrated Aisha:\n\nThe Prophet (ﷺ) intended to practice I'tikaf and when he reached the place where he intended to perform I'tikaf, he saw the tents of Aisha, Hafsa and Zainab. He said, \"Do you consider that they intended to do righteousness by doing this?\" Then he went away and did not perform I'tikaf in Ramadan but performed it in Shawwal for ten days.\n\nNarrated Amra bint Abdur-Rahman from Aisha:\n\nAllah's Messenger (ﷺ) used to practice I'tikaf every year in Ramadan. After offering the morning prayer, he used to enter the place of his I'tikaf. Aisha asked his permission to practice I'tikaf and he allowed her, so she pitched a tent in the mosque. When Hafsa heard of that, she also pitched a tent, and when Zainab heard of that, she pitched another tent. In the morning Allah's Messenger saw the tents and asked, \"What is this?\" He was informed about it and said, \"What made them do this? Is it righteousness? Remove the tents, for I do not want to see them.\" The tents were removed. The Prophet did not perform I'tikaf that year in Ramadan, but did it in the last ten days of Shawwal.\n\nNarrated Amra bint Abdur-Rahman from Aisha:\n\nAllah's Messenger mentioned that he would practice I'tikaf in the last ten days of Ramadan. Aisha asked his permission and he permitted her. Hafsa asked Aisha to take his permission for her, and she did so. When Zainab bint Jahsh saw that, she ordered a tent to be pitched for her. Allah's Messenger saw the tents and asked, \"What is this?\" He was told that they were the tents of Aisha, Hafsa and Zainab. Allah's Apostle said, \"Is it righteousness which they intended by doing so? I am not going to perform I'tikaf.\" He returned home, and when the fasting month was over, he performed I'tikaf for ten days in Shawwal."
