Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي حَصِينٍ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَعْتَكِفُ فِي كُلِّ رَمَضَانَ عَشْرَةَ أَيَّامٍ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ الْعَامُ الَّذِي قُبِضَ فِيهِ اعْتَكَفَ عِشْرِينَ يَوْمًا‏.‏

Translation

Abdullah ibn Abi Shayba narrated to us: Abu Bakr narrated to us, from Abu Husayn, from Abu Salih, from Abu Huraira, may Allah be pleased with him, who said: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, used to observe retreat in the mosque for ten days every Ramadan. In the year in which he died, he observed retreat for twenty days.
