Adam AbuSohaib has been sitting in Eitikaf for a few years.

Adam AbuSuhaib, a 28-year-old resident of Sydney, describes his experience of sitting in I'tikaf in Ramadan as unique. According to him, this act of worship provides an opportunity to disconnect from daily routines and learn valuable lessons.


I'tikaf is a spiritual retreat during Ramadan, where one disconnects from daily routines to focus on worship and personal reflection, as described by Adam Abu Suhaib.

Adam Abu Suhaib admits that disconnecting from worldly activities was a challenge initially.
I maintain this practice yearly, and my workplace supports me by granting and accommodating my leave requirements each Ramadan.

After I'tikaf, Adam realized that not everything is essential at all times, which has helped him become a more disciplined and mindful person.

He praises the excellent I'tikaf arrangements in major mosques and encourages Muslims in regional areas to embrace it for personal growth and discipline.
