Chapter: What Is Permissible and Not Permissible for the One in I‘tikaf
Hadith 4000
عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُجَاوِرُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَيُصْغِي إِلَيَّ رَأْسَهُ فَأُرَجِّلُهُ وَأَنَا حَائِضٌ
Narrated by Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), she said: When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to observe i'tikaf in the mosque, he would lean his blessed head towards me and I would comb his hair, while I was in the state of menstruation during those days.

(وَعَنْهَا مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ): قَالَتْ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَعْتَكِفَ فَيُخْرِجُ إِلَيَّ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ فَأَغْسِلُهُ وَأَنَا حَائِضٌ
(Second chain) She says: When the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, was in i'tikaf, he would extend his blessed head towards me from the mosque, then I would wash it while I was menstruating.

عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُعْتَكِفًا وَكَانَ لَا يَدْخُلُ الْبَيْتَ إِلَّا لِحَاجَةِ الْإِنْسَانِ، قُلْتُ: فَغَسَلْتُ رَأْسَهُ وَإِنَّ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُ عَتَبَةَ الْبَابِ
Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was in i'tikaf, he would not enter the house except for human necessity, and when I would wash his blessed head, there would be the threshold of the door between me and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).
Hadith 4003
((وَعَنْهُ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ):) أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ: وَإِنْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَيُدْخِلُ عَلَيَّ رَأْسَهُ وَهُوَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَأُرَجِّلُهُ وَكَانَ لَا يَدْخُلُ الْبَيْتَ إِلَّا لِحَاجَةِ الْإِنْسَانِ إِلَّا إِذَا أَرَادَ الْوُضُوءَ وَهُوَ مُعْتَكِفٌ
(Second chain) Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would lean his head towards me, and I would comb his hair, while he (peace and blessings be upon him) was in the state of i'tikaf in the mosque, and he would not enter the house except for human needs (i.e., urination and defecation), unless he intended to perform ablution, then he would come.
Hadith 4004
عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزَّبِيرِ وَعَمْرَةَ بِنْتِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ: وَإِنْ كُنْتُ لَأَدْخُلُ الْبَيْتَ لِلْحَاجَةِ، وَالْمَرِيضُ فِيهِ فَمَا أَسْأَلُ عَنْهُ إِلَّا وَأَنَا مَارَّةٌ، وَإِنْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَيُدْخِلُ عَلَيَّ رَأْسَهُ فَأُرَجِّلُهُ، وَكَانَ لَا يَدْخُلُ الْبَيْتَ إِلَّا لِحَاجَةٍ، قَالَ يُونُسُ: إِذَا كَانَ مُعْتَكِفًا
It is narrated from Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: When I would go home out of necessity during i'tikaf and there was a sick person there, I would inquire about their condition while walking, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would extend his head towards me while in the state of i'tikaf and I would comb his hair, and in such a state, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would only enter the house for human necessity.
Hadith 4005
عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ حُسَيْنٍ عَنْ صَفِيَّةَ بِنْتِ حُيَيٍّ (زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَرَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا) قَالَتْ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُعْتَكِفًا فَأَتَيْتُهُ أَزُورُهُ لَيْلًا فَحَدَّثْتُهُ ثُمَّ قُمْتُ فَانْقَلَبْتُ، فَقَامَ مَعِيَ يَقْلِبُنِي وَكَانَ مَسْكَنُهَا فِي دَارِ أُسَامَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ فَمَرَّ رَجُلَانِ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ، فَلَمَّا رَأَيَا النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَسْرَعَا، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((عَلَى رِسْلِكُمَا، إِنَّهَا صَفِيَّةُ بِنْتُ حُيَيٍّ))، فَقَالَا: سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ، يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! فَقَالَ: ((إِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ يَجْرِي مِنَ الْإِنْسَانِ مَجْرَى الدَّمِ، وَإِنِّي خَشِيتُ أَنْ يَقْذِفَ فِي قُلُوبِكُمَا شَرًّا، أَوْ قَالَ: شَيْئًا))
It is narrated from the wife of the Messenger, Sayyida Safiyyah bint Huyayy (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was in i'tikaf. I came to meet him at night, spoke with him, and then when I got up to return, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) stood up with me to escort me back. Her residence was in that place which later became the house of Sayyiduna Usamah bin Zaid (may Allah be pleased with him). Meanwhile, two Ansari men passed by. When they saw the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), they hurried by, but the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to them: "Wait (and walk as you were walking before), this woman is my wife Safiyyah bint Huyayy (may Allah be pleased with her)." They said: "Glory be to Allah! (How astonishing) O Messenger of Allah! (What need is there for this clarification?)" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Satan circulates in the human body like blood, so I feared that he might cast some evil thought into your hearts."
