Member May 29, 2024 at 5:15 amBut he was doing iteekaf there, as in Sira ibn Hesham says and sir ghamidi also quotes that,
So on that mountain, where he was doing itekaaf ? Since you said that itekaaf is applicable in mosque not any other place

Scholar May 29, 2024 at 5:23 amWhen you say sunnah Eiktikaf it is held only in the mosque. The prophet’s actions before the prophethood are not Hujjah. However, if one likes to sit in isolation or meditation, one may do that but that is not a sunnah aiktikaf. The prophet never did it outside the mosque. His wives did not do that in their houses adjacent to the mosque. They had to come to the mosques for Etikaf.
