I am trying to turn off my wifi interface using the following ifconfig command:

ifconfig wlan0 down

My wifi disconnected for almost one second and then it comes back up again.

what is the problem and how I fix it ?

    use rfkill instead? most likely networkmanager overrides your manual config.

You most probably use network-manager, try nmcli nm wifi off.
