Hanad narrated to us, Abu Muawiyah narrated to us, on the authority of Yahya bin Saeed, on the authority of Amra, on the authority of Aisha, she said: Whenever the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, wanted That he secluded himself and prayed Fajr, then entered into his seclusion. Abu Issa said: This hadith was narrated on the authority of Yahya bin Saeed, on the authority of Amra, on the authority of The Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, was sent as a messenger. It was narrated by Malik and more than one person on the authority of Yahya bin Sa’id on the authority of Umrah, as a messenger. It was narrated by Al-Awza’i and Sufyan Al-Thawri And more than one person, on the authority of Yahya bin Saeed, on the authority of Amra, on the authority of Aisha. Some people of knowledge say this hadith is based on If a man wants to seclude himself, he prays Fajr and then enters his seclusion. This is the view of Ahmad ibn Hanbal and Ishaq ibn Ibrahim. Some of them said, “If he wants to seclude himself, let the sun set for him on the night in which he wants to seclude him from tomorrow.” And he sat in His retreat. This is the view of Sufyan al-Thawri and Malik ibn Anas.
