I'tikaf is a spiritual retreat in the mosque during the last ten days of Ramadan, following the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). During I'tikaf, one stays in the mosque dedicating time to worship, Quran recitation, prayer, and dhikr. Rules: maintain ritual purity, only leave the mosque for necessities, avoid worldly distractions, and focus entirely on worship. While the full 10-day I'tikaf is Sunnah, you can also perform shorter periods. Women can observe I'tikaf at home in a designated prayer area. I'tikaf during the last ten nights greatly increases the chance of catching Laylatul Qadr.
