Sayyiduna Mu'ayqib (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) observed i'tikaf in a tent made of palm leaves, whose door was covered with a reed mat, while the people were in the mosque.
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir and al-Mu'jam al-Awsat. Its chain contains a narrator, al-Nadr bin Sa'id al-Bahartiri; I have not found anyone who has written a biography of him.
