UPDATE 24/3/2024. Our Ait-kaaf places are now full, unfortunately we will not be able to take any more applications.
Ait-kaaf is an Islamic practice (Fard-e-Kifaya), that involves seclusion and spiritual retreat in the last ten nights of Ramadan. It is a way of dedicating oneself to worship and seeking Allah’s blessings during this holy month. More importantly, it is a way to look for Layla-tul-Qard.
During Ait-kaaf, the person stays in a masjid or a designated place for a specific period, typically for the last ten nights of Ramadan, and engages in prayer, recitation of the Quran, and other religious activities.
The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) used to observe Ait-kaaf in the last ten days of Ramadan, and his companions followed his example. The reward for Ait-kaaf is immense and an excellent opportunity for spiritual renewal and Internal reflection.
