## Hadith #2473

**Book:** Fasting (Kitab Al-Siyam) | **Narrator(s):** Abdullah bin Budayl al-Khuza'i, Abu Da'ud أبو داود السجستاني الأزدي, Ahmed bin Ibrahim bin Kathir أحمد بن إبراهيم بن كثير, Amr bin Dinar عمرو بن دينار الأثرم الجمحي, ibn Umar, Umar ibn al-Khattab | **Grade:** Hasan Sahih

The sunnah for one who is observing i’tikaf (in a mosque) is not to visit a patient, or to attend a funeral, or touch or embrace one’s wife, or go out for anything but necessary purposes. There is no i’tikaf without fasting, and there is no i’tikaf except in a congregational mosque.
