I'tikaf in a mosque where the Friday prayer is not held

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible to perform i'tikaf in a mosque where the Friday prayer is not held?

Answer:
Yes, there is nothing wrong with it. What is meant is the congregational prayer, whereas the Friday prayer is not obligatory, and going out for the Friday prayer does not affect it because it does not recur. Yes.
