What is I‘tikāf?
I‘tikāf is a special act of devotion where a person dedicates themselves to worship, reflection, and connection with Allah by staying in the mosque for a set period. It is a time to step away from daily distractions and focus on prayer, reciting the Qur’an, making du‘ā, and strengthening one’s relationship with Allah.
Sunnah I‘tikāf is observed during the last ten days of Ramadan, as practiced by the Prophet ﷺ.
Nafl I‘tikāf is a voluntary retreat that can be for any duration, even for a single night.
Register for I‘tikāf
To help us organize and provide the best experience for all participants, we kindly ask those intending to perform Sunnah or Nafl I‘tikāf to register using the form provided.
This is a unique opportunity to disconnect from worldly distractions and immerse yourself in worship. Whether you join for the full ten days or a shorter period, take this chance to refresh your soul and seek closeness to Allah.
