2096 - وَ رَوَى أَبُو أَيُّوبَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ
«إِذَا اِعْتَكَفَ اَلرَّجُلُ يَوْماً وَ لَمْ يَكُنِ اِشْتَرَطَ فَلَهُ أَنْ يَخْرُجَ وَ أَنْ يَفْسَخَ اِعْتِكَافَهُ وَ إِنْ أَقَامَ يَوْمَيْنِ وَ لَمْ يَكُنِ اِشْتَرَطَ فَلَيْسَ لَهُ أَنْ يَفْسَخَ اِعْتِكَافَهُ حَتَّى تَمْضِيَ ثَلاَثَةُ أَيَّامٍ ».
