The i'tikaf-taker going out to buy his needs from outside the mosque

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The scholars have mentioned that the one observing i'tikaf is prohibited from buying and selling. Is it permissible for him to go outside the mosque to buy a miswak that is sold at the door?

Answer:
Buying and selling here refers to the general buying and selling of goods for the purpose of profit. As for buying his needs, there is nothing wrong with that. Yes.
