I'tikaf in the Sacred Mosque or the Prophet's Mosque and its duration

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He also asks: Which is better, i'tikaf in the Sacred Mosque or the Prophet's Mosque? And how many days is the duration of i'tikaf?

Answer:
The Sacred Mosque is better; it is the best of the mosques on the face of the earth, so it is the best. Then after it comes the Prophet's Mosque, and after that comes al-Aqsa Mosque. These are the mosques that have a special status on earth because they are the mosques of the Prophets. As for the duration of i'tikaf, no specific limit has been established for it, neither in terms of being short nor in terms of being long. However, whatever is easy for him, and the more one engages in i'tikaf, the better it is. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
