I’tikaaf for one that passes wind often
Question:-
A person has an illness of passing wind very often. Can he perform I’tikaaf?
Answer:-
The things that cause inconvenience to human beings also cause inconvenience to the angels. Secondly, it is Makrooh to pass wind in the Masjid. If one is unable to control his wind, then he should refrain from I’tikaaf, particularly when others are present to perform I’tikaaf. [Re:- Fataawa Mahmoodiyyah Pg.269 Vol.15]
