Question:
The questioner says: I want to perform i'tikaf for one day, and I want to know from Your Eminence the time period in which it begins and ends.
Answer:
I am the one who teaches you when it begins and ends? No, i'tikaf is that you remain in the mosque for a period of two days, ten days, or whatever is feasible for you. I'tikaf has no fixed duration; it can be short, long, or moderate. Yes.
