What is I’tikaf and why is it done?

I’tikaf involves secluding oneself in the masjid during the last 10 days and nights of Ramadan, as was the annual practice of the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) and his Companions (May Allah be pleased with them). During this time, attendees devote themselves to worship and learning, seeking forgiveness for past shortcomings and searching for Laylatul Qadr (the Night of Power), which is a night of worship more valuable than a thousand months.

The I’tikaf begins on the 21st night of Ramadan and continues until the end of Ramadan. The Prophetic Sunnah is to remain in the masjid during the entire 10-day period, secluding oneself from the outside world.
