- حامداومصلياومسلما، بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم -
It is not permissible to perform i'tikaaf in exchange. Because itikaf is pure worship and it is not permissible to give or take worship in return. However, if there is no practice of exchanging i'tikaaf in any area and a poor person performs i'tikaaf without any worldly reward. Then the people of the area donate some money to him or give him a gift, then both giving and taking of this money will be permissible. 6571864789
