Is it necessary for itikaaf to be for the whole last 10 nights of Ramadan or we can do itikaaf for 5 to 6 nights as I will be cleared from my menses on the 24th night of Ramadan? We would like to sit in itikaaf in Masjid Al Haram, Makkah in shaa Allah.

I want to do It’ekaf this Ramadaan but the only masjid that has arrangement for women’s it’ekaf is far and it will not be possible for my husband to bring food for my iftar and suhoor every day.In this scenario can I do it’ekaf in my home in a secluded room? I think about observing It’ekaf every Ramadaan but am not able to because of these reasons.

This can only be done in the masjid. Leaving your husband and family for itikaf is not at all recommended if you are seeking reward from Allah!

Is it permissible to take bath in a pond outside but nearby the mosque while I am in Itikaf? It is too hot & sweats too much. Cloth & body gets soaked by sweating & makes bad smell. If not permissible then what to do? There is no internal arrangement for shower in the mosque.
