5 Tips to make I'tikaf more attractive and useful
I’tikaf means staying in the mosque for a specific purpose, which is to worship Allah for a certain number of days in accordance with the believer's own wish. It is prescribed in Islam and is mustahabb (recommended) according to the consensus of the scholars.
The time for I'tikaf could be anytime when one is allowed to fast. The best time is the month of Ramadan, especially, the last ten days.

When Should Children Be Encouraged to Fast?
Question:
When Should Children Be Encouraged to Fast?
Answer:
It is encouraged that children observe fasting when they reach the age of seven, if they are physically capable of bearing it.
Some Muslim scholars state that the child should be physically disciplined if he does not fast by the age of 10, which is the same rule that is applied to prayer.

Fasting in the Day of Doubt (End of Sha'ban)
The day of doubt is the 30th day of Sha`ban. It is given that name because there is a doubt regarding the number of days of the month of Sha`ban; they may be 30 or 29. There are also some texts forbidding fasting the one or two days preceding Ramadan. In the hadith, "Do not precede the month of Ramadan with one or two days of fasting, unless it is the habit of any of you (i.e., the person is not specifying these days but ordinarily fasts on them and the few days before them)."

Fasting dispensation for someone who live in North Pole
Question:
Assalamu-alaikum. My question relates to the holy month of Ramadan.
It is my understanding that due to the length of the Islamic year, Ramadan appears to happen about 10 days earlier every solar year. In all places on the Earth other than the equator, this means the time we must fast each day gets shorter or longer (as sometimes Ramadan falls in the summer, sometimes in the winter etc).
