السلام عليكم I intend to itikaf soon ان شاء الله and found out that some of my friends are also going to be there. Is it permissible for a small portion of each day to do things such as reciting to each other to work on hifdh+tajweed and also to do trivias where we test each other on islamic ilm?

Trivia is a game, and itikaf is not for games may Allah reward you
