Muwatta Malik #731
I'tikaf in Ramadan
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَحَدَّثَنِي زِيَادٌ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ الطَّوِيلِ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي رَمَضَانَ فَقَالَ
" إِنِّي أُرِيتُ هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةَ فِي رَمَضَانَ حَتَّى تَلاَحَى رَجُلاَنِ فَرُفِعَتْ فَالْتَمِسُوهَا فِي التَّاسِعَةِ وَالسَّابِعَةِ وَالْخَامِسَةِ " .
Ziyad related to me from Malik from Humayd at-Tawil that 'Anas
ibn Malik said, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, came out to us in Ramadan and said, 'I was shown a certain
night in Ramadan and then two men abused each other and it was taken
away. Look for it on the ninth and the seventh and the fifth.' "
