Volume 3, Book 33, Number 249:
Narrated ‘Amra:
Aisha said, “the Prophet used to practice Itikaf in the last ten days of Ramadan and I used to pitch a
tent for him, and after offering the morning prayer, he used to enter the tent.” Hafsa asked the per –
mission of ‘Aisha to pitch a tent for her and she allowed her and she pitched her tent. When Zainab
bint Jahsh saw it, she pitched another tent. In the morning the Prophet noticed the tents. He said,
‘What is this?” He was told of the whole situation. Then the Prophet said, “Do you think that they in –
tended to do righteousness by doing this?” He therefore abandoned the Itikaf in that month and
practiced Itikaf for ten days in the month of Shawwal.”

Volume 2, Book 26, Number 778:
Narrated ‘Amra:
I heard ‘Aisha saying, “We set out (from Medina) along with Allah’s Apostle five days before the
end of Dhul-Qa’da with the intention of performing Hajj only. When we approached Mecca, Allah’s
Apostle ordered those who had no Hadi along with them to finish the lhram after performing Tawaf
of the Ka’ba, (Safa and Marwa). ‘Aisha added, “Beef was brought to us on the Day of Nahr and I said,
‘What is this?’ Somebody said, ‘The Prophet has slaughtered (cows) on behalf of his wives.’ “
