'''Iʿtikāf''' (Arabic: إعتکاف) is a [[mustahab]] (recommended) worship in [[Islam]] that is consisted of at least three days of fasting in a [[masjid]]. Although there is no specific time to perform I'tikaf during a year, the last ten days of [[Ramadan]], as [[the Prophet (s)]] did so, is the most recommended days to do it.
