Retiring to a Mosque for Remembrance of Allah (I'tikaf)
Chapter: Mu'takif not to enter the house except for a need.
Narrated `Aisha:
(the wife of the Prophet) Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) used to let his head in (the house) while he was in the mosque and I would comb and oil his hair. When in I`tikaf he used not to enter the house except for a need.
