The Prophet ﷺ used to observe i'tikaf during the last ten days of Ramadan. One year he did not observe i'tikaf. When the next year came, he observed i'tikaf for twenty nights (i.e. days). (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2463)
«أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَعْتَكِفُ الْأَوَاخِرَ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ فَسَافَرَ عَامًا فَلَمْ يَعْتَكِفْ وَاعْتَكَفَ مِنَ الْعَامِ الْمُقْبِلِ عِشْرِينَ لَيْلَةً»
