1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Hammad from af-Halabiy who has said the following
“Abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, in the last ten days of the month of Ramadan would retire in Masjid in seclusion for Ttikaf with a tent made of animals’ wool pitched for him. He (the Messenger of Allah) would secure his loincloth and fold up his bed (reduced sleeping). Certain others have said that he (the Messenger of Allah) stayed away from women; but Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘Isolation from women was not true.’”
1ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ حَمَّادٍ عَنِ الْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ
كَانَ رَسُولُ الله (صلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) إِذَا كَانَ الْعَشْرُ الأَوَاخِرُ اعْتَكَفَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ وَضُرِبَتْ لَهُ قُبَّةٌ مِنْ شَعْرٍ وَشَمَّرَ الْمِئْزَرَ وَطَوَى فِرَاشَهُ وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ وَاعْتَزَلَ النِّسَاءَ فَقَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) أَمَّا اعْتِزَالُ النِّسَاءِ فَلا.
