Question:
The questioner says: I go to perform i'tikaf in a mosque in Makkah, and I travel for this purpose. Before that, I perform 'Umrah. Is this permissible for me?
Answer:
Do you mean a specific mosque other than al-Masjid al-Haram? As for the other mosques in Makkah, they are all the same; none of them is singled out.
