Q
What is the significance of performing I`tikaf in Islam and how does it relate to righteousness?
A
The Prophet (ﷺ) intended to practice I`tikaf and when he reached the place where he intended to perform
I`tikaf, he saw some tents, the tents of `Aisha, Hafsa and Zainab. So, he said, “Do you consider that
they intended to do righteousness by doing this?” And then he went away and did not perform I`tikaf
(in Ramadan) but performed it in the month of Shawwal for ten days.
