I`tikâf may be performed in any mosque

Question

Is it true that i`tikâf can only be performed in one of the three sacred mosques?

Answer

It is lawful to perform i`tikâf in any mosque where congregational prayer is held. 

However, if the person intends to observe i`tikâf on a Friday, then it is preferrable for for that person to do so in a mosque where the Friday prayers are held. In this way, the worshipper will not be obliged to leave i`tikâf in order to go to another mosque to attend the Jumu`ah prayer. 

And Allah knows best.
