Chapter on Itikaf and What Fasting Is Obligatory in It

مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ أَبِي عَلِيٍّ اَلْأَشْعَرِيِّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اَلْجَبَّارِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ عَنْ مَنْصُورِ بْنِ حَازِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ:» اَلْمُعْتَكِفُ بِمَكَّةَ يُصَلِّي فِي أَيِّ بُيُوتِهَا شَاءَ وَ اَلْمُعْتَكِفُ فِي غَيْرِهَا لاَ يُصَلِّي إِلاَّ فِي اَلْمَسْجِدِ اَلَّذِي سَمَّاهُ«.
Muhammad ibn Yaqub, from Abu Ali al-Ashari, from Muhammad ibn Abd al-Jabbar, from Safwan, from Mansur ibn Hazim, from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him: Imam عليه السلام said: “The one observing seclusion for worship (al-mutakif) in Mecca may pray in whichever of its houses he wishes, and the one observing seclusion for worship in other than it must not pray except in the mosque which he named.”
