Doing I’tikaf in Ramadan in a masjid where they don’t have jumua prayer rather only the five times daily prayers. In this case can the person who is doing itikaf in such a masjid go to some other place where there is jumua prayer whether it may be a hall or a masjid? If he can go then for how long can he go and how long before the prayer should he go?
The place where there is no jumua it’s OK to do I’tikaf. However, that person should leave for jumua for only as much time as he needs to (perform the obligation) and he shouldn’t stand in the way (to the masjid) or engage in talks with anyone.
